Report a technical issue button

Diagnostic feedback tool in Action Center's Document Validation and Document Classification tasks, the data each report sends, how values are anonymized, and who can access them.

Important:

This feature is temporarily disabled. For more information, refer to the correction in the August 5, 2026 release note.

The Report a technical issue button is a diagnostic feedback tool available in two Action Center task types: a Document Validation task, or a Document Classification one. It lets a reviewer report a technical error, a crash, or unexpected screen behavior that is blocking their work, and send it to the UiPath Document Understanding engineering team without leaving the screen. It is available only in Automation Cloud.

Both task types use the same button and the same dialog. They differ in one respect only: the data each one can attach, because validation and classification produce different data structures. Everything else on this page applies to both.

Finding the button

The button floats above the document and can be dragged to any position, so it does not have to cover the content being reviewed. Its position is remembered for the next visit.

First visit

On a reviewer's first visit, a callout introduces the button and points out that it can be moved. Dismissing the callout with Got it stops it from appearing again.

What the dialog contains

Selecting the button opens a dialog with three independent parts: a description of the problem, an optional diagnostic data attachment, and an optional version rollback. Each part is explained in the following sections.

Describing the problem

The What went wrong? field holds a free-text description of the problem. It is the only required part of the dialog: until it contains text, Send report stays unavailable. The dialog is scoped to technical problems, meaning an error, a crash, or unexpected screen behavior that blocks the reviewer's work.

This field is sent exactly as it is typed. Unlike the data described in the following section, it is not obfuscated, aliased, or filtered in any way.

Warning:

Anything typed into the description is transmitted verbatim. Descriptions of the problem and the steps that led to it are what the engineering team needs.

Sending the results and taxonomy

The data checkbox is selected by default.

  • In a document validation task, Send the Extraction Result and Taxonomy: the taxonomy contains the list of document types, each with its fields and field types. The extraction result is the information being validated: which fields were found, the confidence scores, and where on the page each value was located.
  • In a document classification task, Send the Classification Result and Taxonomy: the taxonomy contains the list of document types. The classification result is the information being validated: which document type each set of pages was assigned to.

In both cases, the document file itself is never captured, and no text read from it is included. Both structures reflect the state as the screen loaded them, so later changes are not sent.

When Send report is selected, the screen refreshes with the initial task data.

For examples of what data is collected, see Examples of the data that is sent.

Trying a previous version

The Try a previous version checkbox reveals the recent versions of the screen that a reviewer can switch to, which helps when a problem appeared only after a recent update. Each entry shows the version's publication date and build identifier.

The choice of previous version is applied to all tasks of that type, and it lasts up to 30 days, after which the newest version is restored automatically. A reviewer can reopen the dialog at any point to pick a different version, or select Use the latest version to return to the newest one.

What data is sent

Two separate transmissions are involved when a report is submitted:

  • The report itself is always sent. It carries the free-text description and which rollback option was chosen, if any.
  • The taxonomy and the extraction or classification result are sent only when the data checkbox stays selected.

The report also contains: the document ID and Action Center task ID, which are UiPath-generated identifiers; the organization and tenant name, region, and build version, which identify the environment; and an anonymized user identifier.

Document validation tasks

DataSent to UiPath?Details
The document file (PDF or image)Never
The free-text problem descriptionYes, verbatimNot obfuscated or filtered
Extracted values of Boolean, Date, Number, Set, and Monetary Quantity fieldsYes, verbatimPreserved because these types hold structured values rather than free text
Extracted values of all other field types, including text read from the documentNoRandomly anonymized
Field, group, category, and document type namesNoReplaced with sequential aliases, for example f1, g1, dt1
Value positions, page dimensions, and confidence scoresYesThese describe layout only, not document content

Document classification tasks

DataSent to UiPath?Details
The document file (PDF or image)Never
The free-text problem descriptionYes, verbatimNot obfuscated or filtered
Document type, group, category, and field namesNoReplaced with sequential aliases, for example dt1, g1, c1, f1
Page ranges and page countsYesPreserved so a reported session still matches the document
Boxes of words, page dimensions, and confidence scoresYesThese describe layout only, not document content, nor any word content.

What is never collected

The following are never captured, generated, or transmitted by this feature:

  • HTTP Archive (HAR) files
  • Network traffic of the surrounding page
  • Screenshots and screen recordings
  • The document file, its text layer, or its page images
  • Cookies, browser storage contents, or credentials

Examples of the data that is sent

The obfuscation happens in the browser, before anything is transmitted. Three transformations are applied:

  • Names become aliases. Groups, categories, document types, fields, and table columns are replaced with sequential aliases such as g1, c1, dt1, f1, and col1. Relationships survive, so engineering can still see the shape of a taxonomy, but no customer-authored name does.
  • Values are randomly anonymized. Every letter becomes a random letter and every digit a random digit, while punctuation, spacing, and length survive, so a purchase order held in a text field, such as PO-4471/A, becomes something like qm-8213/x. The substitution is random rather than a fixed hash, so two identical values never produce the same substitute.
  • Property names are shortened. Long names are aliased to keep the payload small enough to transmit.

In document validation tasks, values of Number, Date, Boolean, Set, and Monetary Quantity fields are transmitted as they are, so the digits inside them are never replaced. In document classification tasks, page ranges are kept as they are, so that a reported session still matches the document.

Who can access this data

Reports reach the UiPath Document Understanding engineering team, and are used to diagnose and fix technical issues only. Reports are never shared with anyone else.

The identifier attached to a report holds no name, no email address, and no other contact detail. The engineering team cannot tell from a report who submitted it, the feature provides no channel through which anyone at UiPath could contact that person, and reports are not answered individually.

Availability and turning the feature off

The button's availability is controlled solely by the UiPath Document Understanding engineering team. There is no self-service way to turn it off, and changing its availability for an organization requires a request to UiPath.
