When you first use Assistant on macOS, you're asked to grant your automations permissions for screen recording. Selecting this option opens the Screen & System Audio Recording settings. To grant permission, select the "+" button and find UiPath Assistant in your Applications list. You can also access these settings later in Assistant under Preferences > General.

We have implemented a solution to prevent displaying Invalid Grant errors to users. If you see the Assistant sign out prompt, your credentials have expired. You are signed out of Assistant and need to sign in again to refresh the authentication token.

Assistant now integrates tasks from Action Center into a dedicated tab—the Tasks tab—instead of a separate window, improving accessibility and enabling seamless one-click context switching.

The Details tab now displays if the selected process is part of a personal workspace.

We've added a general Reload option on the Assistant navigation bar. This option allows Assistant to reload without closing, refreshing the list of available automations, policies, and fixing unresponsive scenarios. As a result, we've removed the Refresh option in Dashboard and Marketplace tabs. The Tasks tab preserves its own refresh option, which is specific to Action Center functionality.

Widget-related errors are now captured in the Diagnostic logs file. To download an archive of these logs, go to Assistant > Preferences > Help > Troubleshoot > Start diagnostic tool.

Uncaught exceptions prevented Apps from loading in Assistant and triggered the error message: "Apps has encountered a problem. Please try refreshing the list or contact your Automation Department if the problem persists." These exceptions were not logged, making it difficult to identify the root cause. They are now properly tracked in internal logs.
