Autopilot overview

Last updated Apr 17, 2025

Prerequisites

To access Autopilot for Everyone, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

UiPath Assistant and Robot version 2024.10.5 or above, Enterprise edition, is installed on your machine.
The Robot is installed in User Mode.
You sign in to Assistant using the Service URL.
There is an Automation Ops policy to enable third party AI models and Anthropic models in your Automation Cloud™ tenant.
You are part of an Enterprise plan and hold a user license that enables attended automations, such as Automation Developer, Citizen Developer, Autopilot Express, or Attended User.
The Document Understanding service is enabled on your tenant .
Important:
You need AI units to enable the Document Understanding service. To have access to AI units, add the AI Center service to your tenant.
Autopilot for Everyone is installed in your Automation Cloud™ tenant.
You have access to the Autopilot folder in the tenant.
The personal workspace is enabled for your account.
The User license management is enabled for your organization.

Roles and permissions

To interact with Autopilot for Everyone, you need the following roles and permissions:

The Automation User role in the Autopilot folder.
The Enable user to run automation option is selected for your user account in Orchestrator.
The personal workspace is enabled for your user account.
The View permission for Resource Overwrites in the Autopilot folder.

Licensing and policies

To access Autopilot for Everyone:

Be part of an Automation Cloud™ Enterprise plan.
Have a valid Attended, Automation Developer, Citizen Developer, or Autopilot Express user license.

When 24.10.1 Assistant policy is in place, the Autopilot for Everyone widget is displayed by default. To disable it for your organization, apply your own Automation Ops policy.

Important:

Tenant-level deployments of Assistant policies do not propagate correctly to users, preventing the Autopilot for Everyone widget from being displayed. As a temporary solution, deploy the Assistant policy directly to a user group containing the intended users.

Automation Developer or Autopilot Express licenses allow you to execute automations exclusively from the following Orchestrator folders:

Personal Workspace—Automations created by users
Autopilot—Automations installed and deployed with the Autopilot for Everyone installation
Tool Automations and subfolders—Out-of-the-box automations deployed by Autopilot for Everyone administrators

Important:

If you, as an admin, previously deployed out-of-the-box automations from the Marketplace solution, you must manually create the Tool Automations folder and deploy the solution there.

We recommend reinstalling the out-of-the-box automation bundles from the Autopilot for Everyone Admin experience and removing any manually deployed out-of-the-box automations.

Compatibility matrix

Autopilot for Everyone needs Assistant to run, and it uses Clipboard AI for the copy-paste functionality. The following compatibility table summarizes the working versions for each Assistant standalone version.
