Mobile Automation in UIPath Studio Community Edition (Free version)

Hi, I am new on UIPath and currently using free version of UI path(Community edition), I want to know if it is possible to do mobile automation on this. If yes, what are the pre-requisites and if not, which edition should I use for mobile automation and what will be the cost for its licence.

Hi @chaitanya.kulkarni
Thank you for quick reply, I have tried to install the package UiPath.MobileAutomation.Activities but getting below conflict :

20.10.6+Branch.master.Sha.37657ef79003ea8751ac4efb35736eeeace8b2ce

I am using version “2020.10.6”, will you please guide me about this error. Attaching the screenshot for the same.

  • Click Yes to apply all recommendations!
  • If you detect that UiAutomation or MobileAutomations have problems later, then you have to check if you find a newer UiAutomation package that has the same version of UiPath, or compatible.

Thank You Cristian, It worked and package is installed. But still setup has some issues and I am not able find the Mobile Automation Item/dropdown in the ribbon/taskbar which contains Mobile Device Manager and Import Recorded Actions options. Also I am not able to find any Template regarding Mobile Automation in Template List as shown in Mobile Device Automation with UiPath Studio (20.4 Community Preview Release) , attaching screenshots for your reference.

I already develop a program for auto wash company. All the process managed by robots. It is trigered just a click.

I see that you’re using StudioX. Can you try all the setup in Studio?

Edit: I’ve tested with both Studio and StudioX 2020.10.6 Community License and they both work in the sense that the activities are installing fine. Yes in StudioX the button doesn’t appear and also there isn’t a special section for the mobile activities but if you search for them you can find them and use them (Mobile Device Connection, Tap).

Anyway, just switch to Studio profile and everything should work as expected. To change the profile go to Settings -> License and Profile -> View or Change Profile and change the profile to Studio.

Thanks Cristian, steps you mentioned worked, now I am able to view Mobile Automation package in UI Path Studio. But still not able to find Mobile Device Manager in ribbon/taskbar, I tried to look for package for the same but couldn’t find any. Please let me know if there is particular dependencies or add-ons I need to make to the studio. I have seen few tutorials, they are using Appium for Mobile Device Connection, do I also need to install it or UIpath Studio is capable of doing everything(Mobile Device connections) individually? Also if there is any setup guide/tutorials for same, please let me know I will follow them.

Attaching screenshot for your reference.

It seems you reused the StudioX project? If this is true, can you create a new project?

Hello, I have the same issue in using the Community edition version of UiPath after installing the UiPath.MobileAutomation.Activities package and the error is:

20.10.7+Branch.support-v20.10.Sha.59fdc9eaddb3b60006a3a2396fa57210c6d28dc6

And I tried all your suggestions, clicked yes to apply all recommendations, switching to Studio, tried different versions of the package, created a new project in Studio and after that installing again the package, but still not working. Then I found this error in the terminal:

NU1107: Version conflict detected for UiPath. Install/reference UiPath 21.10.34.30369 directly to project NewProcessProject to resolve this issue.
NewProcessProject → UiPath.MobileAutomation.Activities 21.10.3 → UiPath (= 21.10.34.30369)
NewProcessProject → UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities 20.10.9 → UiPath (= 20.10.7641.24102).

So I uninstalled the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities package and then there was no error. But the problem still is that the Mobile Automation (Mobile Device Manager) ribbon is not showing, neither the template. Can you please tell me what can I do in order to make it work?

I’ve tried the following package versions and it works for me. Can you please try this combination of versions?

studio_version_dependencies

Both UiAutomation and MobileAutomation are using UiPath so if you want to use them together, you have to use relatively close releases. UIAutomation 20.10.9 is older compared to MobileAutomation 21.10.3. UIAutomation 21.10.5 is a better candidate!

Thank you for the suggestion! I have updated all the packages like you said and now my question is where can I find the Mobile Device Manager? Because a ribbon with this didn’t appear in the top menu, so should it be in other place?

mdm_button
This is how it should appear after installing the MobileActivities package.
Are you on the latest Studio?

I wasn’t on the latest Studio and that was the problem, now it’s working, thank you very much for the quick answers!
