UiPath API Workflows
Move faster with API automation, built into the UiPath Platform™
APIs on? Work flows better.
API automation on the UiPath Platform gives both agents and robots real-time, governed access to enterprise systems and data—so they can retrieve information, trigger actions, and move work forward instantly wherever APIs are available.
With UiPath API Workflows now available alongside RPA and agentic workflows, you can build reusable logic, consistent data, and a tightly connected integration layer all from UiPath Studio.
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 seamlessly 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.
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.
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.
Integrate everything
Connect to any app, system, or data source using prebuilt 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 made for system-to-system orchestration
At the heart of API Workflows is a visual designer purpose-built for system-to-system orchestration. It gives developers the power and flexibility they need—without the overhead of traditional iPaaS or the limitations of low-code “recipe” tools.
Connect to everything
Start with prebuilt connectors from the UiPath catalog, or create your own using Connector Builder. For any custom system, 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. Easy to version. Easy to trigger. Easy to maintain. Perfect for developers who want both speed and precision.
Fast, scalable, and serverless
API Workflows run on a lightweight, serverless execution engine built for speed, scale, and simplicity. They execute in milliseconds, scale automatically to handle thousands of concurrent runs, and require no bots, no schedulers, and no infrastructure to manage.
Built for real-time and high-throughput scenarios
Whether triggered by a business event, agent, or app, API Workflows respond instantly – making them ideal for real-time, high-throughput automation.
Deeply integrated, fully connected
API Workflows are built into the UiPath Platform so you can build automations that bridge UIs and APIs, humans and systems, reactive and proactive. Your projects share common assets, resources, and governance, so logic stays consistent and manageable—wherever it runs.
Synergize across a unified canvas
Orchestrate logic across apps, robots, agents, and agentic orchestrations from a single, unified environment. Workflows become modular building blocks—reused across teams and projects, and triggered by events, users, or agents. When you use the full strength of the UiPath Platform, you automation logic becomes composable, governable, and reusable everywhere.
AI-first developer experiences
Thanks to integration with UiPath Autopilot, you get an AI-first developer experience that accelerates everything, from generating expressions to building workflows and connectors. That means less time coding, more time solving real-life problems.
Trusted management & governance
The control IT expects, with the speed automation teams love.
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.
