uipath-platform

What it is and what it does

The uipath-platform package is a Python SDK that wraps the UiPath Cloud Platform API, enabling developers to programmatically invoke automation processes, manage assets and credentials, interact with cloud storage buckets, monitor jobs, and access semantic context grounding for AI-enabled automation. It ships with both a Python library interface and a command-line tool for initializing, packaging, and publishing automation projects to UiPath Orchestrator.

The SDK is built on modern Python HTTP and async foundations (httpx, anyio, tenacity for retries) and integrates with pydantic for data validation. It targets developers who want to orchestrate UiPath automations from Python code, deploy LangGraph or LlamaIndex agents to the platform, or manage automation lifecycle operations via CLI. The package requires Python 3.11 or later and relies on environment-based authentication via UiPath Cloud Platform credentials.

Use it for:

• Invoke UiPath automation processes from Python scripts with input parameters and retrieve job results
• Manage automation assets (credentials, variables) and retrieve them programmatically for use in workflows
• Download files from UiPath cloud buckets or upload automation artifacts for deployment
• Monitor and query the status of running or completed automation jobs from a Python application
• Package and publish Python-based agents (LangGraph, LlamaIndex) to UiPath Cloud Platform via CLI
• Perform semantic searches against knowledge indexes using the context grounding service for AI-enabled automation

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

A Python SDK for programmatic interaction with UiPath Cloud Platform services, including process execution, asset management, job monitoring, and a CLI for packaging and deploying automations.

Yes, with conditions. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and fills a clear role for developers integrating with UiPath Cloud Platform. However, the unclear license status requires verification before use in proprietary or compliance-sensitive environments. If your project depends on UiPath orchestration and you can confirm the license terms, this is a solid choice.

Install

uipath-platform on PyPI

pip install uipath-platform

uv add uipath-platform

poetry add uipath-platform

Installing uipath-platform

Before you install

Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution. The package is actively maintained with a release 2 days old and recent commits; it depends on stable, widely-used libraries (httpx, pydantic, tenacity, truststore) with no compiled dependencies.

License in practice

License status is unclear—no SPDX identifier or raw license text is available in the package metadata. Verify the actual license terms in the repository before using in proprietary or copyleft-sensitive projects.

Quickstart

pip install uipath-platform

from uipath.platform import UiPath
sdk = UiPath()
job = sdk.processes.invoke(name="MyProcess", input_arguments={"param1": "value1"})

Requires Python >=3.11. Must set UIPATH_URL and UIPATH_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variables for authentication.

Verify before relying

• Actual license terms and conditions (license_treatment is 'unclear' in metadata)
• Whether the SDK supports all UiPath Cloud Platform services beyond those listed in the description
• Performance characteristics and rate limits when invoking processes or querying large datasets
