UiPath 26.0.189 March Community Release

UiPath 26.0.189 March Community Release

:waving_hand: Hey Community!

Here’s what’s new in this release.

Studio

Source Control panel

Studio now has a dedicated Source Control panel, bringing all necessary Git operations in one place.

From the panel you can see all your pending changes at a glance. Double-clicking on a file opens a diff view tab, so you can better understand what changed between versions. You can also commit and push directly from the panel.

The panel also includes a Graph section, displaying your repository’s commit history as a visual graph — making it easier to manage branches and understand the overall history of your project, all from one place.

Stay in sync with external changes

Studio now stays in sync when files are modified outside the editor:

  • If files or folders are added, removed, or renamed in the project folder — via Windows Explorer, a script or any other way — the Project Explorer refreshes automatically.
  • If a file you have open is modified externally, Studio detects it and reloads it automatically.

Improvements

  • Double-clicking on an Invoke Workflow activity now opens the referenced workflow directly in the editor.
  • When a connection is unavailable (for example, a shared connection that belongs to another user), Studio now shows “The selected connection is unavailable. Please choose another connection.” instead of the generic “Connection is broken. Fix the connection.”

Previous release notes

Please tell us what you think

What excites you the most? What is your experience? We want to hear what you think! Please use the A red button labeled "Reply" with a blue left-facing arrow icon. (Captioned by AI) button below :slight_smile:

Ahhh, the Git client gets some love!
Will give it a spin for sure!

And “Terminal” in combination with “auto-reload” is the right step: Citizien and Junior devs might use autopilots which are sitting on top of the ladder of abstrations.
PowerUser will leverage lower-level tools and the auto-reload caters to them.

As the next step: I would want to use xUnit and .csproj on my coded source files.
Studio has hickups with nested .NET ‘stuff’.
Would be a great next step to no longer need to use a “parent” xUnit repo with the UiPath Studio project as a submodule, to get xUnit play along.

And in the project panel a “copy path” right-click menu entry would be great! For easy pasting of a path into Claude Code.

@cprima - created this improvement with the Copy Path option. You will find it in the next release upcoming in two weeks.

Wow, THANKS!

I guess you can anticipate one of my next LinkedIn posts:

  • Claude Code in the Terminal panel
  • my custom rpa-cli doing some “magic” (mostly pseudocode parsing, this saves 70% of tokens, and I write out into a “datalake” as json. Even Sonnet picks up the “recursive call graph” immediately.
  • refactoring of legacy code happening in the main pane

In that scenario

  • reload
  • copy path

are key to bring a “VS Code experience” to the UiPath platform.

LLM-assisted pair programming is for me not autonomous, rather “Solution Architect” work. The “copy path” is essential to TIGHTLY steer the LLM.
In VS Code I think I “copy path” 15 times a hour.

Having access to proper version control is one of the best benefits of Studio Desktop, so this is a great feature to work on!

Hi Alex!
I just realized that ObjectRepository also has a Open-in-Explorer – great!

A Copy as Path would also be beneficial there. :slight_smile:
