RPA Infrastructure: Promotion between Environments (DevOps)

[JayDembani]

Promotion between the Environments:
• How do we do promotion between different environments i.e. From Dev to UAT to Production in UiPath Implementation?
• Is there any tool or utility which is used to do so?
• What are the challenges and common issues you/your team has faced.

Many Thanks for the response.

Bump this topic … interested in same info. Last time I heard, there were no real automation ways from UiPath, but that could have changed.

This is just from what I know, but there is a task being created by UiPath to integrate into VSTS/Azure DevOps. This should allow a more streamlined way to deploy projects between multiple Environments.

I can’t provide any other details because I’m not sure if it is supported by the UiPath team yet. I have used it briefly, but initially there were some issues installing it in our company, but I think we’ll get it working soon.

I don’t know when or if UiPath plans to present this solution publicly.

Thanks @ClaytonM. Anyone from UiPath has more info on this (hopefully UiPath admins see this :))

Hi @Kemal

We are definitely looking into improvements in the CI/CD area to streamline deployment and further improve scaling capabilities. Stay tuned

Deployment from acceptance environment (including assets) #AutomatedDeployment #Migration

Hi, We have 3 orchestrator environments. Development - Acceptance - Production. Way of working now is that developers create a package of a robot-script. That file is manualy uploaded in the acceptance enviroment and when tested, we upload that same file manualy in production env. It would be nice if we could “push” a version from 1 env. to the other. So that orchestrators are linked. And even better is that you could select a version to move, including some assets. Now assets have to be cre…

Hi @loginerror I saw this thread as suggested solution in several posts but since then, is there any update regarding an official feature to solve this usual scenario?

Hi @PeteG

Welcome to our UiPath Forum!

You can refer to this post for some more information:

Deploy between Dev/Test/Prod Orchestrators

Hello! Unfortunately, at the moment there is no built-in feature to connect different Orchestrator instances to each other. But there are a few tools that may be helpful in your case: PowerShell cmdlet library that, among other operations, can make it easier to copy Packages (and other entities) between Orchestrator instances: GitHub - UiPath/orchestrator-powershell: UiPath Orchestrator PowerShell cmdlet library UiPath Studio project that allows bulk operations on entities (including Packag…

Thanks for your answer.

I already check the related post. I’d like to know if this is in the roadmap of the tool or not, to avoid using external modules, scripting, etc to perform tasks that are in the daily basis of a software development project.

Thanks in advance.
Regards.
