UiPath API Workflows - Create API workflows in minutes.

One canvas, seamless building experience

  • Call API workflows from your agents, robots, apps, or run them as part of an orchestrated process, all governed and deployed from a single environment.

  • Reuse logic, assets, and processes across projects.

  • Switch between UI automation and API automation in a unified design experience.

  • And with UiPath Autopilot™, you get an AI-first developer experience, built right into the core of automation.

See it in Studio
UiPath API Workflows can be used as tools for UiPath Agents.

API automation for agents and robots

No matter how intelligent they are, agents still need secure, governed execution to perform at their best.

API Workflows serve as a backbone for agents and robots on the UiPath Platform, with built-in access to connectors for direct integration and the ability to invoke API workflows for deterministic logic.

It's how agents and robots retrieve data, trigger business logic, and act across enterprise systems with precision and truly elevating their decision-making power.

UiPath API Workflows are fast, reliable, and enterprise-grade.

Run without friction

API Workflows execute in milliseconds on a lightweight, serverless runtime that auto-scales to thousands of executions.

No infrastructure, no bottlenecks. They're built for high-throughput, low-latency execution, perfect for real-time system-to-system integration and agentic use cases that need to move at the speed of business.

Choose from a large and growing catalog of curated connectors

Integrate across systems and apps

Connect apps, systems, or data sources using pre-built and custom connectors, raw APIs, or internal services. Build logic visually, or dive into full API control when needed.

System-to-system integration for the agentic age

Built for the agentic age and fully integrated into the UiPath Platform™, API Workflows offer a secure, scalable, and developer-friendly way to integrate across systems, with the power and simplicity automation teams expect.

Visual designer with AI-first developer experience

API Workflows have a visual designer purpose-built for system-to-system orchestration. It gives developers power and flexibility without the overhead of traditional iPaaS or the limits of low-code 'recipe' tools. UiPath Autopilot adds an AI-first experience that accelerates building workflows, connectors, and expressions.

Reach the systems you need

Start with pre-built connectors from the Integration Service catalog, or create your own using Connector Builder. When needed, call raw REST APIs directly using OpenAPI specs or HTTP activities. Define inputs and outputs, manage control flow, and structure data the way your systems expect it.

Built-in JavaScript support

API Workflows come with built-in JavaScript support for advanced data transformation and in-line logic. Developers can manipulate payloads, perform calculations, and handle edge cases, all inside the workflow. No extra scripts. No external tools.

Deterministic, multi-step workflows

Build deterministic, multi-step workflows that abstract complexity and expose reusable logic as composable services. They're easy to version, trigger, and maintain.

Fast, scalable, and built for real-time scenarios

API Workflows run on a lightweight, serverless execution engine. They execute in milliseconds, scale automatically to handle thousands of concurrent runs, and require no bots, schedulers, or infrastructure to manage. Whether triggered by a business event, agent, or app, they respond instantly.

Synergize across a unified canvas

Orchestrate logic across apps, robots, and agents from a single, unified environment. Workflows become modular building blocks, reused across teams and projects, and triggered by events, users, or agents. With the UiPath Platform, your automation logic stays composable, governable, and scalable.

Trusted management and governance

Security, compliance, and governance are built into every API workflow. Each one is governed, versioned, and managed natively within the UiPath Platform, just like the rest of your automations.

API Workflows run on the same trusted management layer that powers the rest of the UiPath Platform, giving enterprise teams consistent visibility and control across the entire automation landscape.

UiPath API Workflows: common evaluation questions

Answers for automation teams evaluating API Workflows on the UiPath Platform.

  • UiPath API Workflows are API-first automations exposed as composable, callable services. They abstract multi-step API logic that any agent, robot, or app can call on demand, on schedule, or in response to events. Every workflow runs on the UiPath Platform with security and governance built in.

  • API Workflows focus on high-speed, API-first system integration. RPA Workflows automate user interfaces to extend automation into systems that don't expose APIs. On the UiPath Platform, you can use the right workflow type for each job and orchestrate them together as one end-to-end process.

  • Use the catalog of connectors in UiPath Integration Service, build custom connectors with Connector Builder, or call raw REST APIs directly for any custom system using OpenAPI specs or HTTP activities.

  • UiPath enforces governance at every layer across every API call, connector, and automated process, with role-based access control (RBAC), logging, audit trails, and environmental isolation. Governance is built into every workflow on the UiPath Platform, giving enterprise teams consistent visibility and control across automation.

  • API Workflows run on UiPath Automation Cloud and UiPath Automation Suite, so teams can choose the deployment model that fits their needs.
