Last updated Mar 26, 2026

Step 1: Downloading the installation packages and getting them on all the machines

Step 1.1: Preparing the machines in the cluster

Create the installation folders by running the following command on all the machines. Make sure to replace <version> with the actual Automation Suite version you intend to install.

sudo su -
mkdir -p /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>
chmod -R 777 /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite
sudo su -
mkdir -p /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>
chmod -R 777 /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite

Step 1.2: Using the installation packages

To retrieve the installation packages, use the following options:

  • Option A: Move the as-installer.zip contents from the temporary location created in Step 8 to the installation folder. The preferred location is /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/.

  • Option B: Download the installation package and unzip it:

    Required packageLocationDownload instructions
    as-installer.zipOn all the Automation Suite machines. The preferred location is /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/.See as-installer.zip.
Note:

You must perform this step on a machine with Internet access, as follows:

  • Online installation - You can download the file on the Automation Suite machines.
  • Offline installation - You need a temporary management machine with internet access to download the file and then transfer it to the Automation Suite machines.

Step 1.3: Unzipping the installation packages

Unzip the installation packages on all the Automation Suite machines:

cd /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>
unzip as-installer.zip -d installer
cd /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>
unzip as-installer.zip -d installer
Note:

If you perform the steps described on this page, the installer files are extracted to the /opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/installer folder. All our installation instructions assume that you use this folder, so we recommend using it as well.
