Saving Your App

UiPath Apps has a 30-second interval auto-save feature. This means that every 30 seconds your application is automatically saved, but only if there are new changes during that time period.

Auto-save Feature​

You can see whether your application is saved at any time by checking the status in the user interface. If the application is saved, the following message is displayed: All changes saved.

After you make any changes, the application is automatically saved after the 30-second interval and the following message is displayed: Busy saving changes.... The Preview and Publish options are disabled while the application is being saved, but they are enabled immediately after the saving process is done.

Manual Save Feature​

If you make any changes to your application and do not want to wait for the 30-second interval until auto-save, you can always manually save your progress. To do so, click Save now when the following message is displayed: Unsaved changes (auto-save happens every 30 s) Save now. You can also use the Ctrl+S keyboard shortcut to save the app.

The application is also saved if you press either Preview or Publish and there are unsaved changes before previewing or publishing.

Internet Connection Issues​

Since UiPath Apps is an online cloud-based application, your progress cannot be saved if you encounter Internet issues. In such cases, the auto-save feature still tries to save your progress every 30 seconds, or you can retry manually.

If the application cannot be saved after more than three retries, a Save Failure message is displayed.

Note:

There is a high risk that your progress is not properly saved if you encounter internet issues for longer periods or time or if your session expires. Make sure you have a stable internet connection when using Apps.
