UiPath licensing strategy provides customers a coherent and comprehensive end-to-end automation platform. If you have not yet transitioned over to the new commercial licensing based on user roles (available from April 2020), please check out the Licensing Guide for more information to help you with the transition.
Definitions
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this policy will have the meaning assigned to them in the licensing agreement.
Attended Robots Allows the execution of workflows as a direct result of a human action and under human supervision. More details here.
Concurrent Runtime When online and connected to Orchestrator, a machine consumes a number of licenses equal to the runtime capacity of the machine used to connect it to Orchestrator. The runtime represents the maximum number of processes that can simultaneously run on a specific machine.
Customer is an entity or an individual having received the right to use products by virtue of an agreement.
Disaster Recovery is the copy of a license that may be used solely as needed to regain use of the associated software for disaster recovery and business continuity following a catastrophic loss.
ML Skill is a deployed, consumer-ready machine learning package.
Multiuser is a license model where a license is assigned to 1 user out of a pool of authenticated users. Each Multiuser license adding up to 3 distinct authenticated users to the maximum number of users that can be granted access. Multiuser may be displayed as “Concurrent User” in legacy platform version
Named User is a license model where a license is assigned to, and may only be used by, a uniquely identified user.
NonProduction is available only for designated software and refers to non-production use, such as internal development, internal training, and evaluation, excluding any production use
Production refers to use of the software according to its intended commercial designation.
Product, Service, or Software may be used interchangeably, and each refers to any software component, service, and the underlying technology proprietary to UiPath. UiPath has the right to license or distribute to its customers.
Runtime is an execution slot an unattended robot can use to execute an automation. A machine (physical or virtual) has a runtime capacity equal to the maximum number of unattended robots that can execute simultaneously on that machine.
Unattended Robots Allows the execution of workflows without human supervision through the management capabilities offered by UiPath Orchestrator. More details here.

Guidelines and Restrictions
- Multiuser and Named User licenses for the same product cannot co-exist on the same Orchestrator key.
-
Studio may be activated using a Robot license only for limited purpose (and not for the purpose of developing workflows), as follows:
- Activation through the Attended Robot or Testing Robot is limited to debugging (no editing allowed)
- Activation through Unattended Robot or NonProduction Robot is limited to troubleshooting (editing allowed)
- Studio and Attended Robots used without Orchestrator are activated with standalone licenses.
- Attended Robots cannot be used as Unattended Robots.
- NonProduction designated products cannot be used in production. Automation workflows must not be executed in production using NonProduction licenses.
- Disaster Recovery may be enabled only for certain products, as allowed by UiPath, and is subject to the same rules and restrictions as the production license of such product. The production license and the Disaster Recovery setup cannot be enabled at the same time
Legacy versions of this policy for previous releases have been Archived.
