uip or

Manage Orchestrator jobs, folders, processes, packages, machines, users, roles, licenses, and runtime resources using the `uip or` tool.

uip or is the Orchestrator tool: it manages jobs, folders, processes, packages, machines, users, roles, licenses, feeds, attachments, and the runtime resources automations depend on (assets, buckets, queues, triggers, libraries, webhooks) on a UiPath Orchestrator tenant. Install it with uip tools install or, or invoke uip or … and let auto-install run. See Tools (plugins) for the install model and uip tools for the command that manages tool installation.

Resources

Each resource has its own reference page. The verb set on each page matches the commands registered by uip or — run uip or --help to confirm the full surface on your installation.

ResourcePurpose
jobsStart, stop, restart, resume, and inspect process executions; fetch logs, traces, healing data, and state history.
foldersCreate, list, move, edit, and delete folders; inspect runtime allocation.
processesBind packages to folders as runnable processes; update, rollback, and edit.
packagesUpload, download, list, and inspect .nupkg automation packages and their entry points.
machinesManage machine templates and slot allocations; assign machines to folders.
usersCreate, edit, delete, and assign Orchestrator users; manage tenant-level role assignments.
rolesManage roles, permissions, and role-user membership at tenant and folder scope.
licensesList runtime and named-user license assignments; toggle machine licensing; view tenant license summary.
feedsList package feeds available to the current user.
attachmentsList and download job attachments.
assetsNamed configuration values (Text, Bool, Integer, Credential, Secret) used by automations at runtime. Folder-scoped.
bucketsStorage containers for files used by automations. Folder-scoped.
bucket-filesIndividual files inside a bucket. List, upload, download, delete, fetch pre-signed URLs.
librariesReusable .nupkg packages (shared activities and logic). Tenant-scoped.
queuesContainers for transactional work items. Folder-scoped.
queue-itemsIndividual transactions inside queues, with full state-machine controls. Folder-scoped.
triggersTime, queue, and API triggers that start jobs. Time/queue triggers are folder-scoped; API triggers are tenant-scoped.
webhooksHTTP callbacks fired on platform events (job completion, queue-item failure, …). Tenant-scoped.
credential-storesList and inspect external credential store configurations used by Credential/Secret assets and Azure/Amazon buckets.

Runtime evaluation of deployed packages — submitting runs, scoring outputs, and managing evaluators/eval sets/schedules against an Orchestrator process — is a separate, standalone tool: uip eval (package @uipath/eval-tool, not a uip or sub-command, even though every verb operates against an Orchestrator process/folder).

Synopsis

uip or <resource> <verb> [options]
uip or <resource> <verb> [options]

Always uip or, never uip orchestrator. or is the tool's command prefix (see the commandPrefix column in uip tools list).

How to read this section

Every resource page is structured the same way:

  1. Synopsis — the uip or <resource> <verb> command shape.
  2. Verbs — a one-line table of every verb the resource exposes.
  3. One H2 per verb — description, positional arguments (if any), flag table, three examples (simplest, common case, scripting-friendly with --output-filter), and the Data shape returned under --output json.
  4. Exit codes — a pointer to the shared Exit codes contract, with any verb-specific overrides called out inline.
  5. Related commands and See also — cross-links to sibling resources and relevant concept pages.

Default output format is --output json. Data shapes on every page reflect the JSON payload — table, yaml, and plain renderings are derived from the same Data object.

Common flags

A small set of flags recurs across most resources. They behave the same way wherever they appear:

FlagUsed byPurpose
--folder-path <path>most verbs that scope to a folderTarget folder by fully-qualified path (for example, Shared, Production/EU).
--folder-key <key>most verbs that scope to a folderTarget folder by GUID. Mutually usable with --folder-path; either resolves the same folder.
--all-folderslist on some folder-scoped resources (for example, assets, buckets)List across every folder accessible to the caller instead of scoping to one. Where supported, one of --folder-path, --folder-key, or --all-folders is required.
-l, --limit <number>every list verbPage size. Defaults to the CLI's DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE (50 at time of writing).
--offset <number>every list verbNumber of items to skip before returning. Defaults to 0.
--sort-by <field>most list verbsOData sort expression (for example, Name asc, Id desc). Each verb documents its default.
--all-fieldsmany list / get verbsReturn the raw API response instead of the curated summary. Useful when you need fields the default shape omits.
-y, --yesevery destructive (delete) verbConfirm the operation. Required — the CLI never prompts interactively for a destructive action.

Verb-level flags (filters, input/output paths, strategies, priorities) are documented on each resource page.

Runtime-resource conventions

The runtime-resource pages (assets, buckets, bucket-files, libraries, queues, queue-items, triggers, webhooks) share a few additional conventions on top of the ones above:

  • Folder scoping. Assets, buckets, queues, queue items, and triggers (time / queue) are folder-scoped. Provide either --folder-path <path> (e.g. "Shared") or --folder-key <guid> on list, create, and related calls — or --all-folders where that flag is supported. get, update, and delete resolve cross-folder by key when feasible; each verb's description on the resource page calls it out explicitly. Libraries, API triggers, and webhooks are tenant-scoped and do not accept --folder-*.
  • Keys. Most resources are identified by a GUID returned in list output (under key, identifier, or — for queue items — uniqueKey for a single attempt and key for the retry chain). Numeric id fields are internal and should not be passed to commands.
  • Filtering. Where supported, -n, --name <name> is a contains-match on the resource name; some resources add --enabled, --disabled, --status, etc.

Global options and exit codes

All uip or verbs honor the four global options (--output, --output-filter, --log-level, --log-file). Exit codes follow the shared contract; any verb-specific override is called out on the relevant resource page.
