September 2026 release notes for Automation Hub in Automation Cloud and Test Cloud.

Process Design Documents and Solution Design Documents can now arrive automatically on the Documentation page of an automation idea, published directly from UiPath Cartographer, alongside the existing manual upload options. Publishing from Cartographer creates the automation idea itself and attaches both documents in a single step, recording the originating Cartographer business process on the idea. For details, see Documentation and Sending SDDs to Automation Hub in the Delegate & Cartographer user guide.

You can now link an idea or automation to an individual step of a business process model, and choose whether the estimated benefit of that automation counts toward the benefit of the parent process. Linked automations are listed on the new Linked Automations tab of the business process, alongside the combined totals for hours saved per year, monetary benefit per year, and full-time equivalents.

Because the choice belongs to each link, an automation reused across more than one process is not counted repeatedly at organization level. Where a user lacks view rights to one of the contributing automations, the totals are withheld rather than shown as a partial sum. For details, see Rolled-up benefit and Linking an automation to a process step.

Three columns are now available in the Workspace lists: Rolled up benefit (hours saved/year), Rolled up benefit (currency/year), and Rolled up benefit (FTEs). They can be added from the Columns control, and the Sort dropdown now includes three matching options, so you can compare business processes by total rolled-up benefit and prioritize the ones to send for implementation. For details, see Column Information.

You can now set a background color for a node in the process model editor, for example to mark the steps that are subject to audit. The color is stored in the process model itself, so it also appears when the model is opened in Studio Web. For details, see Creating and editing process models.

You can now upload .md files as process documents. Additionally, the document preview modal renders .md files, including headings, lists, links, tables, task lists, and fenced code blocks. For details, see Documentation.

You can now assign View the Users and View the User Roles permissions to a custom role, giving read-only access to the Users and Roles pages without the ability to add, edit, or delete. For details, see Creating a New User Role and Role Description and Matrix.

When adding or editing an application in the IT Application Inventory, you can now select all Automation Areas at once instead of selecting them individually. For details, see App Inventory.
