Executing UiPath CLI tasks

Running tasks inside the UiPath CLI designed for Windows devices (UiPath.CLI.Windows) requires several tasks.

The main differences between procedures for the UiPath.CLI.Windows and procedures for the UiPath.CLI (UiPath CLI designed for Linux devices), consist in additional arguments that you could pass with some tasks that are specific to the type of device that you are running on.

Important:
When using UiPath CLI, you must ensure that the project is closed in Studio. Doing otherwise causes a conflict leading to the following error message in CLI: The action could not be performed because the project is already opened in another Studio instance. Please close it and try again.

To know more about the specific tasks you can execute through the UiPath Command Line Interface (CLI), consider reviewing the following topics:

API access application scopes

The following table shows the required Orchestrator API Access Application Scopes for running any CLI task.

Application Scope

Description

OR.Assets

Assets read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.BackgroundTasks

BackgroundTasks read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Execution

Execution read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Folders

Folders read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Jobs

Jobs read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Machines.Read

Machines read access in Orchestrator.

OR.Monitoring

Monitoring read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Robots.Read

Robots read access in Orchestrator.

OR.Settings.Read

Settings read access in Orchestrator.

OR.TestSets

TestSets read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.TestSetExecutions

TestSetExecutions read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.TestSetSchedules

TestSetSchedules read and write access in Orchestrator.

OR.Users.Read

Users read access in Orchestrator.

In addition to the listed scopes in the table, an important scope to highlight is OR.Default. The OR.Default scope acts as a wildcard. It offers fine-grained, role-specific access at both organization and folder levels. This gives you the flexibility to have precise control over application permissions, beyond the predefined organization-wide scopes. For more details, see Declaring scopes.

Adding an external application

To register an external application so that it can use OAuth to access your UiPath resources, see Managing external OAuth applications.
