Building macOS native automations

Studio User Guide
Last updated Jul 2, 2025
Building macOS native automations
To start building macOS native automations, make sure you meet the following requirements:
- You install and update UiPath Assistant to 2025.0.167, or newer.
- You start and connect UiPath Assistant to the current organization, and tenant.
- You connect UiPath Assistant to the same tenant, or folder as where you opened Studio Web.
- You set accessibility and screen recording permissions for UiPath Assistant.
To create your UI automation, take the following steps:
- Open Studio Web.
- Add a Use Application/Browser activity to the canvas.
Note: To create a browser automation, select a browser tab to automate from the Work in scope dropdown.
- To create a desktop automation, switch the Indicate on local machine toggle to On.
- Set the Test environment to Test on local machine. When the popup message appears, asking you to allow the website to open UiPath Assistant, select Allow.
-
Select Indicate on local machine.
UiPath Assistant starts the selection on your macOS machine.
You can indicate to any of the applications on desktop.
Note: The first time you indicate, the initial startup may take longer, depending on your download speed. - In the Use Application/Browser app card, add a UI Automation activity, such as Click.
-
Select Indicate target.
The Studio Web window minimizes, and you can indicate any element using Selection Helper, as well as use the functionality of the Advanced Selector Editor for fine-tuning the selectors.
