After creating a form in UiPath on an offline computer, the form’s content appears blank, I cannot add any activities to the form, and an error occurs when calling the form in the workflow, making it unable to display the form.
Does UiPath Forms require an internet connection to use?
What is your Studio?
Provide the Studio project with only the Form archived in a zip to test internally.
Hello @157944871
Here are two possible ways to solve your problem:
Solution 1 (with internet connection):
You need internet connection to first download and install UiPath.form.activities dependencies and packages, check if your UiPath.System.Activities dependencies are updated to the latest version too.
Solution 2 (without internet connection, you’ll need other machine with internet connection):
(In your connected machine)
Create a new blank process and install the UiPath.Form.Activities v25.10.0 package from the Manage Packages button.
Copy the folders from “C:\Users<User>.nuget\packages”:
(most important): “UiPath.studio.forms.runtime” and “UiPath.studio.forms.runtime”
(may not appear): “UiPath.forms”, “UiPath.forms.widgets” and “UiPath.web”
(In your disconnected machine)
Paste the folders at the same route
Open the project.json file in your project folder as a Notepad and replace:
“UiPath.System.Activities”: “[25.4.4]”
with:
“UiPath.System.Activities”: “[25.4.4]”,
“UiPath.Form.Activities”: “[25.10.0]”
Open your project in UiPath Studio and check if you already have the form dependency.
After that, you must be able to continue without connection.
Happy Automation!
Studio 2025.10.1 LTS
UiPath.Form.Activites = 25.10.0
UiPath.System.Activities = 25.10.3
The form panel and form properties can now be displayed, but when the process reaches the show form activity, it gets stuck and then reports an error: Show Form: Could not display the form Form300b5ab3-2db3-49a4-b495-c695796e86d1. (NavigateTimeout)
Normally, the Form is working offline.
Can you use Fiddler Classic and monitor the calls while form replicates the issue?
Observe which ones are timing out.
Are you binding large data collections to a formio component?
Yes, UiPath Forms needs an internet connection the first time to download its components. Without that, the designer and properties panel will be blank, and the form will fail to load at runtime.
Open one form while connected → let UiPath download all components → after that you can work offline.
On a computer that can load UiPath Forms correctly:
Copy folder:
C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Local\UiPath\app-*\Packages\FormActivityLibrary\
Paste it into the same location on the offline computer.
