Welcome to the UiPath Community.
The error message “Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed” typically indicates an issue with the SMTP server hostname or URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) format.
Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve this error in UiPath:
- Check SMTP Server Configuration: Make sure that the SMTP server hostname or IP address you’re using in your UiPath activity is correct and properly formatted.
- Verify URI Format: Ensure that the URI you’re providing to the SMTP activity follows the correct format. It should typically look like
smtp://hostname
. - Check Network Connectivity: Ensure that your machine running UiPath Studio or the robot has network connectivity to the SMTP server. You can test this by attempting to ping the SMTP server from the command line.
- Firewall and Security Settings: Check if there are any firewall or security settings blocking outgoing connections from your machine to the SMTP server. Adjust settings as necessary to allow the connection.
- Authentication Credentials: Ensure that you’re providing the correct username and password for authentication if required by the SMTP server.
- SSL/TLS Settings: If the SMTP server requires SSL/TLS encryption, make sure you have enabled it and provided the correct settings in the SMTP activity.
- Try Different SMTP Server: If possible, try using a different SMTP server to see if the issue persists. This can help determine if the problem is specific to the server you’re currently using.
- Check UiPath Documentation and Community Forum: Look for any specific guidelines or known issues related to sending SMTP mail in UiPath in the official documentation or community forums. You might find solutions or workarounds provided by other users who have encountered similar issues.
By going through these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the “Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed” error in UiPath when sending SMTP mail.
