License allocation and management

Overview

UiPath® Data Fabric usage is included in all Robot or Studio-enabled licenses, and includes the following two levels of service:

  • Community—free of charge
  • Enterprise—paid

    The amount of data storage available, the instances size requirements and the allowed number of Data Fabric API calls vary depending on the type of license you acquire.

For more details about Automation Cloud licenses, refer to About licensing.

License details per level

Allowed Data Fabric usage is expressed in Data Fabric Units (DFU). Each DFU grants a certain amount of data storage, attachment storage, and a maximum number of API calls per day.

Community license

A Community license has a fixed Data Fabric Unit assigned which can only be enabled for a single tenant.

The following table offers an overview of what is included in terms of data storage, attachment storage, and maximum API calls per day:

Enterprise (including Enterprise Trial)

Your Automation Cloud account is granted one Data Fabric Unit for each of the following licenses:

  • Action Center

  • Attended

  • Automation Developer

  • Citizen Developer

  • Cloud Basic User

  • Process Mining Developer

  • Test Robot

  • Unattended Robot

The following table offers an overview of what is included in terms of data storage, attachment storage, and maximum API calls per day:

After you enable Data Fabric, you can allocate up to the maximum amount of Data Fabric available units. You can change the number of assigned units later on.

To learn how to edit the license allocation for Automation Cloud services, including Data Fabric, refer to Allocating licenses to tenants.

Provisioning Data Fabric tenants

Important: The license type for a Data Fabric tenant is the license type of the account at the time of the tenant creation.

When upgrading a Community account to an Enterprise (or Enterprise Trial) account, your existing Data Fabric tenant is restricted to the community storage and API call limits.

To leverage the storage and API calls available to your Enterprise (or Enterprise Trial) account, you need to create a new Data Fabric tenant.

License workflow

This is how the license structure works:

  • Your Automation Cloud account has different licensing quantity parameters for each service that can be attached to the platform.

    • This means that, based on those quantity parameters, you can add one or multiple services to your Automation Cloud account.
  • When enabling Data Fabric for a tenant, you must assign one or more DFUs to it.

The details of the total and allocated Data Fabric Units can always be reviewed. Depending on your role,

  • Users can access Automation Cloud > Admin > Licenses;
  • Organization administrators can access Automation Cloud > Admin > Licenses > Other services.

Refer to License usage for details.

The license is freed up if:

  • the tenant is disabled;
  • the tenant is deleted;
  • Data Fabric is removed from an existing tenant.
