Perplexity activities release notes.

Perplexity is retiring its Sonar Chat Completions API (supported until September 27, 2026) in favor of the new Agent API. To keep your automations running, UiPath migrated every Perplexity activity and the Completed Asynchronous Chat Job trigger to the Agent API. Existing workflows keep working, and saved Sonar model IDs are mapped to the matching preset automatically.

Because the Agent API differs from the Chat Completions API in request and response structure, the output format, citations, or model behavior may differ slightly. Re-test any workflows that parse the output of these activities.

The Agent API has no endpoint for listing jobs, so List Async Chat is no longer available in the designer, and existing workflows that use it fail. To check on a job, use Get Async Chat Object with the ID returned by Generate Async Chat Completion.

This release brings a new trigger and three new activities:

Perplexity has deprecated the following models, which are no longer available for use in the Chat Completion activity:

For details, refer to the Model deprecation notice.

To ensure uninterrupted operation of your automations, replace the deprecated models with one of the following new, fully supported models:
