Deterministic Python or TypeScript/JavaScript units of business logic, including data transforms, domain rules, and custom API calls, packaged as first-class UiPath artifacts.

A coded function is an atomic, deterministic unit of business logic — no LLM reasoning, no agent loop — written in Python or TypeScript/JavaScript. With a coding agent, you describe the logic you need, and it scaffolds, writes, tests, and publishes the function as a first-class UiPath artifact.

A coded function takes typed input, runs deterministic code, and returns typed output. Reach for one when a generic activity doesn't cover the logic you need — a custom-auth API call, a domain-specific business rule, an ERP query through Integration Service, or a data transform.

Once built, a function can be called as a Maestro service task, invoked from an agent, started as an Orchestrator job, or reached over HTTP.

This work is powered by the uipath-functions skill, which scaffolds a function in either language, declares its input and output contracts, tests it locally, and packs and publishes it. You can see it in the Skills catalog.

A first request might look like this:

"Create a coded function that normalizes this order payload — trims whitespace, uppercases the order ID, and converts the date to ISO 8601."

The agent scaffolds the function, writes the transform, and runs it locally against a sample input before you publish it.
