Update UiPath Connector

Audience: Low-code Engineers

Skill Prerequisites: Actions, Tokens, Connectors

Changes an existing UiPath connector. The action finds the connector by its ID and saves a new title and new UiPath login details.

The update replaces the connector's details. An empty field clears the saved value, so pass every value you want to keep.

note

This action requires the UiPath feature to be licensed. UiPath support is a separate add-on package (DnnSharp.UiPath). If you don't see the UiPath actions, the add-on isn't installed.

Typical Use Cases

• Save a new password after it changes in UiPath
• Let users edit their saved UiPath account from a form
• Rename a connector or point it at another tenant

Don't use it to

• Create a connector. Use Add UiPath Connector instead.
• Check that the new details work. The action saves them without contacting UiPath. Use Test Connector after saving.
• Update a connector of another type. Use Update Connector instead.

Input Parameter Reference

Parameter	Description	Supports Tokens	Default	Required
Portal	The portal of the connector group. It isn't used when the action runs. When using an expression, the value must be the PortalId.	Yes	empty string	No
Entry Id	The ID (GUID) of the connector to change, for example [UiPathConnectorId].	Yes	empty string	Yes
User Id	A user ID for the connector. In 1.28 this value isn't saved on the connector.	Yes	empty string	No
Entry title	The new name of the connector. It always replaces the current name, so an empty value clears it.	Yes	empty string	No
Tenant Name	The UiPath tenant name to sign in to. An empty value clears it.	Yes	empty string	No
Username or Email	The UiPath username or email address. An empty value clears it.	Yes	empty string	No
Password	The UiPath password. Saved encrypted. Use ****** to keep the saved password. An empty value clears it.	Yes	empty string	No

Considerations

• Everything is replaced. The title, tenant, username and password are saved as entered. Pass the tenant and username again even if they haven't changed. To keep a saved password without knowing it, pass ******.
• The Entry Id must exist. An empty value fails with Data was not saved due to an invalid EntryId!. An ID that isn't found fails with Requested connector, with id '...', does not exist. A value that isn't a GUID also fails.
• The connector type isn't checked. The action changes whatever connector the ID points to. If the ID belongs to another type of connector, that connector's fields are cleared. Make sure it's a UiPath connector.
• The login isn't tested. Run Test Connector after the update to check the new details.
