Posted by Mumbai: Agentic automation provider UiPath announced new capabilities that enable the orchestration of Microsoft Copilot Studio agents alongside UiPath and other third-party agents via UiPath Maestro.
The company’s enterprise orchestration solution Maestro enables this seamless coordination with agents, robots and people across complex processes, while developers can now orchestrate Microsoft Copilot Studio agents directly from Maestro.
This capability builds on bi-directional integration between the UiPath Platform and Microsoft Copilot Studio recently announced by Microsoft, that facilitates seamless interaction between UiPath and Microsoft agents and automations — allowing customers to automate complex end-to-end processes, enable contextual decision-making, improve scalability, and unlock new levels of productivity.
Developers can now embed UiPath automations and AI agents directly into Microsoft Copilot Studio and integrate Copilot agents within UiPath Studio— all while orchestrating seamlessly across platforms with UiPath Maestro.
“Our continued partnership with Microsoft enables millions of Microsoft users to take full advantage of the capabilities and flexibility offered by agentic automation and orchestration,” said Graham Sheldon, CPO – UiPath. “The UiPath multi-agent, cross-system capability uniquely enables seamless interaction and collaboration across various enterprise systems and applications, breaking down silos and enhancing overall operational efficiency.”
Building an Open Ecosystem
As several agentic platforms continue to take ‘walled garden’ approaches, UiPath is committed to building an open ecosystem so customers can focus on business outcomes without getting bogged down by technology limitations.
UiPath Maestro can leverage the bi-directional integration with Copilot Studio to give customers built-in capabilities to build, manage, and orchestrate agents built in Microsoft Copilot Studio and other platforms in a controlled and scalable way—all while driving tangible business outcomes.
Empowering Developers
The integration extends other new capabilities that elevate business processes and drive smarter outcomes with agentic automation across departments and platforms. For instance, customers can now run coded agents built using LangGraph natively on the UiPath Platform without changing a single line of code.
This empowers professional developers to build and test their agents using Python tooling while getting advantages of the UiPath Platform including governance, security, evaluations, and more—while running LangChain agents in their business process.
Developers can also use UiPath UI Agent for computer use, to navigate real-world enterprise interfaces. The UiPath UI Agent understands intent, plans, and acts autonomously using a combination of computer use models and UiPath industry leading UI Automation. UI Agent is currently in private preview.
Partnership with Microsoft
UiPath has partnered with Microsoft to build a joint agentic vision anchored on industry leadership and customer choice. These integrations join the availability of its enhanced Autopilot agent for Copilot for Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams, allowing joint customers access to UiPath enterprise-grade automation capabilities from anywhere they use Copilot for Microsoft 365 or Teams.
UiPath and Microsoft are also working together to make Azure tools discoverable to UiPath agents with an MCP integration as well as bring models and capabilities built on AI foundry to customers through the UiPath Platform.
