Generating automations

Overview

Autopilot helps you generate and refine automations faster and more intuitively using prompt-based generation. With natural-language prompts, you can instruct Autopilot to create workflows, coded logic, or app interfaces that match your intent, without needing to build them manually from scratch.

This experience is non-conversational: you provide one prompt and Autopilot generates the output. It is designed for quick creation, iteration, and understanding of automation components directly inside Studio, Studio Web, or Apps.

Autopilot accelerates the automation design process by handling repetitive, technical setup tasks, and you can focus on higher-value logic, orchestration, and optimization.

Tip: For an interactive, context-persistent, and chat-based experience, use the Autopilot chat. It offers similar generative capabilities, and allows you to refine, explore, and adjust automations iteratively through natural conversation.

Where automation generation capabilities are available

  • Studio and Studio Web - Use Autopilot to generate coded workflows, activities, and expressions directly in your automation canvas.
  • Apps – Use Autopilot to create application interfaces from natural language, documents, or images such as PDFs or screenshots.
Autopilot integrates into your design environment, turning a short instruction into a ready-to-use automation blueprint or interface.

Capabilities

Autopilot can help you:
  • Generate workflows, coded workflows, and test cases using natural language instructions.
  • Generate and fix complex expressions directly in the code editor.
  • Suggest next steps in an automation by creating sequences of activities.
  • Summarize the logic or purpose of activities and sequences.
  • Generate application interfaces from Data Service entities, PDFs, screenshots, or text prompts.
Note: Autopilot capabilities in Studio are available starting with Studio 2024.10.1, and 2024.10.5. For more information, visit the Studio 2024.10.1, and 2024.10.5 release notes.

Limitations

  • Autopilot capabilities are only available if you sign in to Studio using a user account.
  • An Automation Cloud™ connection is required to access Autopilot capabilities.
  • Autopilot capabilities in Studio are available only in Windows and Cross-platform projects.
