Deprecation timeline

This article identifies features, or capabilities that will no longer be supported and will be removed at some point in the future. Please note that this is not a product roadmap and is subject to change.

Terminology

  • Deprecation refers to features or capabilities that are in the process of being replaced by superior alternatives. Deprecating a feature or capability means that UiPath discourages its use, but the feature continues to be available. Deprecated features or capabilities are often targeted for removal in future versions.

    Deprecated features or capabilities are fully supported and continue to work until we effectively remove them.

  • Removal means a feature or capability is removed and is no longer available for use or supported.
  • Out of support means UiPath® will stop issuing patches and hotfixes to a certain product version. Out of support dates do not make the subject of this article. For more details on out of support versions, see theout-of-support versions.

UiPath.Abbyy.ActivitiesOctober 3, 2024August 2025

By August 2025, we will be removing the UiPath.Abbyy.Activities and UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities packages. To prepare for this removal, you are required to perform the following steps to erase all objects associated with UiPath.Abbyy.Activities and UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities:

  • Remove any activity from within these two activity packages from your automations. These include the following: Abbyy OCR, Abbyy Cloud OCR, FlexiCapture Classifier, FlexiCapture Extractor, FlexiCapture Scope, Classify Document (FlexiCapture), Process Document (FlexiCapture), Validate Document (FlexiCapture), Export Document (FlexiCapture), Get Field (FlexiCapture), GetTable (FlexiCapture), Prepare Validation Station Data, Abbyy Screen OCR, and Abbyy Document OCR.
  • Uninstall the activity package from all your projects and automations.
  • Delete UiPath.Abbyy.Activities and UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities packages, along with any dependencies related to Abbyy, stored in your local storage and Orchestrator feeds.

After August 2025, you won't be able to execute any Abbyy or AbbyyEmbedded activity on your UiPath Robots.

The alternative to UiPath.Abbyy.Activities is to replace it with UiPath.IntelligenctOCR.Activities and its connected functionality. The alternative for UiPath.AbbyyEmbedded.Activities is UiPath.OCR.Activities, which now supports a multitude of languages through its activities: UiPath Document OCR, UiPath Screen OCR, and UiPath Extended Languages OCR.

Testing Module in OrchestratorOctober 2023January 31, 2025By January 31, 2025, Test Manager will equal Orchestrator in testing capabilities. However, Orchestrator won't incorporate Test Manager's new features. From January 31, 2025 onwards, we recommend migrating your test objects (test cases, test sets, test executions, test schedules, test data queues) from Orchestrator to Test Manager. We will make sure that, starting with January 31, 2025, you have six months available to move your testing objects, until the deprecation date.
The Alerts - View permission November 2023May 2024

This permission has been rendered redundant by the introduction of group alerts. You can read details about them in the Setting alerts preferences per group section of the Configuring alerts page.

The deprecation is only planned for cloud environments.

The break inheritance settings model

May 2024

November 2024 (for cloud environments), October 2025 (for Automation Suite environments)

The current break inheritance settings model will be replaced by the union of privileges model. The new model will propagate any adjustments made at the group level to all users within the group. The settings impacted by the new model are:

  • UI Profile settings (No UI access, Personal Workspace only, Standard Interface)

  • Update policy settings

  • Enable user to run automations

  • Create a personal workspaces for this user

Ensure that you migrate to the new model as soon as it is announced in our release notes.

April 2025

We recommend you to avoid using mixed roles in access configurations. By the time the deprecation is complete, we will migrate any remaining mixed roles. Additionally, any API calls that retrieve roles by name will fail if they refer to the name of a deprecated mixed role.

To maintain equivalent privileges, replace the Administrator role with the Orchestrator Administrator and Folder Administrator role pair, which provides the same level of access. To fully transition from mixed roles, divide existing roles into tenant- and folder-scoped roles as needed.
