Orchestrator - Solutions - Deploy to already existing folder

Help Orchestrator
1

I face challenge in terms of Orchestrator management.

I would like to address:

  • Migration between tenants (DEV <> TEST <>PROD)
  • Deploy of new solution
    I figured out that we can use feature of Orchestrator called Solutions.

I have created project based on PROD tenant and I do want to deploy it in TEST.

During deployment it creates solution folder instead of adding components to already existing one.

I must use already existing folder structure and the goal would be to add 008_Offboarding process to HR folder.

I walked through all documentation files and searched UiPath forum but found no help there.

Do you guys have an idea if this can be achieved using Solutions?

Hi @KamilG

Did you provide the destination folder name while deploying the solution?

It seems if no folder is specified, solution folder is created at root level which happened in your case.

If you want to deploy to already existing folder, then that folder name need to be specified.

Please check below doc on same

Hi,
Thank you for your response.

As I checked:

  1. Setting: root folder=HR, custom solution folder name=008_Offboarding

All configuration that I tried creates solution folder as an output.
I am worried that this is exactly as UiPath developer though it should be.
But still it is hard to accept that this functionality is so hard to use and moves us to folder per process architecture which is really hard to maintain on daily basis.

Hi @KamilG

What happens when you provide the location as HR and the solution folder name also as HR? Try 2 ways - enabling and disabling use custom solution folder name and observe the behavior.

Does it still create hr folder under HR? I think it should merge.

It creates HR (solution folder) under HR. I believe I checked all possible configurations and all lead to not want we want.
