Workflows

resolve-folder-start-job
Resolve folder context then start a job for a deployed process.
Lists accessible folders to obtain the organization unit ID, lists the processes deployed in that folder, and starts a job for the first matching process using the supplied robot allocation strategy.
3 steps inputs: folderName, inputArguments, processNameFilter, strategy outputs: folderId, jobId, jobState, releaseKey
1
findFolder
listFolders
List the folders accessible to the caller, filtered to the supplied folder name, to resolve the numeric folder ID used as the organization unit context.
2
findProcess
listProcesses
List the processes deployed in the resolved folder, narrowed by the supplied name filter, returning the release key needed to start a job.
3
startJob
startJobs
Start a job for the resolved process in the resolved folder using the supplied allocation strategy and input arguments.

  title: UiPath Resolve Folder and Start a Job
  summary: Resolve a folder context, pick a deployed process, and start a job in it.
  description: >-
    A common Orchestrator entry-point pattern. The workflow first lists the
    folders the caller can access to obtain the numeric folder ID required by
    the X-UIPATH-OrganizationUnitId header, then lists the processes deployed
    in that folder to obtain a release key, and finally starts a job for the
    chosen process. Every step spells out its request inline so the flow can be
    read and executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
