Hello, I’m a student and new to UiPath. I am working on creating a flowchart and to use cases i need flow switch from workflow package by Windows Workflow Foundation Activities. ref:https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/workflow/flow-switch. I am able to find the documentation of the activity but it is not existing in the panel. Also i tried installing studiox again and repair it too. Tried installing packages but flowswitch or any other activities mention in workflow package is not available. How can i resolve this ?

It’s part of UiPath.System.Activities, you don’t need another package, but you’re in StudioX and that activity is for Studio. Possibly it’s named something else in StudioX or not available.

Hi @Manoj_Acharya

The Flow Switch activity you mentioned is part of the Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) Activities package in UiPath. It seems you’re having trouble finding this activity in UiPath Studio. To resolve this issue, please follow these steps:

  1. Check Installed Packages:

    • Open UiPath Studio.
    • Navigate to the “Manage Packages” option in the “Home” tab.

  2. Package Source:

    • Ensure that you have the official UiPath package source configured. You can check this by going to the “Settings” tab in the “Manage Packages” window and selecting the “Official” source.

  3. Search for the WF Activities Package:

    • In the “Manage Packages” window, make sure you’re in the “All Packages” tab.
    • Search for the “UiPath.System.Activities” package. This package contains the Windows Workflow Foundation activities, including Flow Switch.

  4. Install or Update the Package:

    • If you don’t see the package installed, click the “Install” button next to it.
    • If you see it installed but with an outdated version, click the “Update” button to get the latest version.

  5. Restart UiPath Studio:

    • After installing or updating the package, close and reopen UiPath Studio to make sure the changes take effect.

  6. Check Activity Panel:

    • Once UiPath Studio is open, create or open a workflow.
    • In the activities panel, you should now be able to find the Flow Switch activity under the “Workflow” section.

If you’ve followed these steps and still can’t find the Flow Switch activity, there might be an issue with your UiPath installation. In that case, consider uninstalling and reinstalling UiPath Studio to ensure that all packages and activities are correctly installed.

Also, make sure you have the correct permissions on your machine to install or update packages in UiPath Studio. Sometimes, restricted permissions can prevent the installation or update of packages.

Thanks!!

This person is using StudioX not Studio. In Studio, Flow Switch is in UiPath.System.Activities
