Version 9.15 (Release date: 27 February 2025 )Copy link to clipboard
Performance enhancements for robotic task executionCopy link to clipboard
This release includes optimizations that improve how robotic task executions are developed and monitored, especially in debug mode. This enhancement lets more developers work on larger robotic tasks at the same time without requiring additional infrastructure, creating a better development experience and maximizing your existing setup.
Key improvements:
- More stable debugging and robotic task execution when multiple users are debugging simultaneously.
- A smoother, more responsive experience when running robotic tasks, even for complex robotic task executions.
- Greater efficiency when multiple users are working with large robotic tasks, enabling teams to scale development without increasing infrastructure costs.

Behind-the-scenes updates for RPACopy link to clipboard
We’ve made several behind-the-scenes updates to keep things running smoothly. There are no visible changes in this release, so you can continue developing as quickly and easily as always.
Version 9.13 (Release date: 25 October 2024 )Copy link to clipboard
Stay secure and efficient with automatic RPA autologin updatesCopy link to clipboard
The RPA autologin service now automatically updates to the latest version when connecting to a newer version of Appian RPA. You’ll always have the most up-to-date security features and performance enhancements, reducing the need for manual updates and minimizing downtime. With this update, you can focus more on your work while the system takes care of staying current and secure.
Tip: A warning icon will display next to your robot until the robot is updated with the latest autologin service.
Version 9.12 (Release date: 2 August 2024)Copy link to clipboard
Java 17 is hereCopy link to clipboard
Beginning with RPA 9.12, agents now require the use of Java 17. To ensure RPA continues to operate smoothly, upgrade to Java 17 immediately if you have not already. All low-code actions within Appian RPA are backward compatible, but you will need to check the compatibility of any custom actions. Be sure to review the Java 17 Upgrade Guidance for complete information. For help, contact Appian Support.
Version 9.11 (Release date: 21 June 2024)Copy link to clipboard
Manage version history for robotic tasksCopy link to clipboard
Version history for robotic tasks is available now! Easily explore and restore past versions, update to the latest, or delete unnecessary ones-all in Appian Designer. This addition brings a unified experience with other Appian objects, making it easier to keep your robotic tasks organized and current.
Note: This feature is enabled for customers on Appian 24.2 or higher.
Boost performance for faster automationCopy link to clipboard
We've optimized Appian RPA to enhance your automation experience. Robotic tasks now line up faster (up to 75%), letting more robots operate simultaneously due to quicker robotic task assignments. This improvement is especially beneficial during peak workloads when thousands of tasks need to be executed simultaneously, or in environments with a lot of robots; e.g., more than 50.
