Studio User Guide
Last updated Oct 20, 2025
Starting with UiPath Studio version 2023.10, the UiPath Extension for Chrome can automate multiple browser instances, each with a different user profile, simultaneously.
Even when using a single profile, you can open the browser with a non-default browser profile by using the Use Application/Browser activity. To specify a profile at browser start-up, you must append an argument to the browser command line through the Arguments property in the Unified Application Target input section.
For Chrome, the required argument
is:
--profile-directory="profile_path"
.
The
profile_path
is the relative path to the User data
folder path specified for that Use Application/Browser activity.
If the User data folder path is not specified, then the profile path is
relative to the default user data
directory
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data
.
To find the profile path in Google Chrome, navigate to
chrome://profile-internals/
and retrieve it from the Profile
Path entry.
