Uipath Orchestrator Machine Creation on Prem

I have installed UiPath Standalone Orchestrator v25.10.1 on-premises. My Orchestrator is currently unlicensed, and I would like to know whether a license is mandatory to create or register a machine, as I am currently unable to see any option to create a machine.

I’ve attached screenshots for reference. Any clarification would be appreciated.

hi @Muhammad_Taeyyab ,

Yes, license is mandatory for machine creation in Standalone Orchestrator v25.10.1. Unlicensed instances hide machine management options.

Solution:

  1. Go to Admin > License
  2. Enter your license key and activate (Production/Non-Production/Hybrid)
  3. Navigate to Tenant > Machines - option will appear

Without license activation, the feature is blocked by design.​

Hi @Muhammad_Taeyyab

Yes, a license is mandatory to create or register a machine in UiPath Standalone Orchestrator. Without licensing, machine management options are not available. Apply a license through Tenant → License to enable this feature.

Happy Automation

Hi @Muhammad_Taeyyab

Yes, a license is required.

In an unlicensed Orchestrator, options related to Machines and Robots are not available. You won’t be able to create or register a machine until you activate a license (even a trial).

Once the Orchestrator is licensed, the Machines menu will appear and you can proceed with machine creation and robot setup.
