August 2026 release notes for Agents in Automation Cloud and Test Cloud.

Agents can now retain what they learn from past executions and reuse it in later runs. Episodic memory recalls the inputs and outcomes of semantically similar past cases and adds them to the agent's context. Escalation memory reuses how a person resolved a comparable escalation, so the agent applies the stored outcome instead of raising the same escalation again.

Memories are stored in memory spaces, which multiple agents can share and which are managed from the new Memory spaces tab in Agents instance management.

For details, refer to Agent memory.

Conversational agents now support personal connections, allowing individual users to select which Integration Service connections the agent uses on their behalf. This is useful when the agent needs to act with a user's own credentials — for example, sending emails from their account or accessing their personal calendar.

The full personal connections experience is available in select deployment channels.

For setup steps, see Enabling personal connections. For design guidance, see Connection considerations.

The gemini-3.5-flash model is now available for Agents. For regional availability and routing information, see AI features and model routing.

Agents can now use coded functions as tools. The coded function tool, available in preview, runs custom Python code as a deterministic, process-based tool, so an agent can call precise logic — data transformations, calculations, or external system calls — and reason over the structured result.

For details, refer to Functions.

Conversational agents now support client-side tools — tools that execute on the client surface (the user's browser or host application) rather than on the UiPath server. This enables agents to access client-local data, trigger UI actions, and leverage device capabilities that are not available server-side.

Client-side tools are available on surfaces that support client-side tool handling, such as the UiPath TypeScript SDK or any surface that implements the UiPath conversation protocol. On pre-built surfaces like Instance Management and iFrame embedding, client-side tools display a form for users to fill in manually.

For details, see Client-side tools.
