Sending documents to Automation Hub
Publish the PDD, SDD, and BPMN process diagram from Cartographer straight to UiPath Automation Hub, and review the result there.
Cartographer produces three outputs for a process: the PDD, the SDD, and the process diagram. You can publish each of them straight from the Cartographer conversation to UiPath Automation Hub, then open the process record to review the documents and act on them.
When you publish, Cartographer checks Process Repository, the Automation Hub module that stores your business processes, for a business process with the exact same name. If it finds one, it sends the documents to that existing business process. Otherwise, it creates a new business process in Automation Hub. Either way, it records the originating Cartographer business process on it.
Before you start
- You've generated the documents you want to publish. Refer to TO-BE design and PDD generation and Generating an SDD.
- You need an existing Automation Hub instance in your tenant. Confirm you can reach Automation Hub outside Cartographer, in the same tenant you intend to upload to, before publishing.
- The upload uses your current organization and tenant — the ones you're logged into inside Cartographer. Make sure they're the ones you want the documents to land in.
- Publishing uses the uipath-automationhub skill, also published in UiPath's skills repository; Cartographer picks up the latest version automatically.
Workflow
Publishing to Automation Hub
Each output is published with its own prompt:
| Output | How to publish |
|---|---|
| PDD | After the PDD is drafted, select the Publish this PDD to Automation Hub suggested prompt. |
| SDD | In the review session, select the Publish this SDD to Automation Hub suggested prompt, or type "Publish this SDD to Automation Hub." Both the SDD and the PDD are uploaded. |
| Process diagram | Prompt Cartographer directly, for example: "Publish the diagram to the Automation Hub business process." There's no suggested prompt for the diagram, and publishing the SDD doesn't include it. Only BPMN diagrams can be published. |
Cartographer uploads to the existing business process with the same name in Process Repository, or creates a new business process in Automation Hub if none matches. When you publish the SDD, the chat confirms with the SDD and PDD published under a process ID.
Opening the Automation Hub process record
Select Open the Automation Hub process record, or select the hyperlinked process title in the chat reply. Your browser opens the Automation Hub automation profile for that process, at a URL under /automation-profile/…, showing the process header and a status banner.
Switching to the Documentation tab
In the automation profile header menu, select the Documentation tab — it shows a badge count, for example Documentation (2). The Automation Files grid loads with a card for each generated document: SDD – [Process Name] (Solution Design Document) and PDD – [Process Name] (Process Definition Document).
Actions available in Automation Hub
Once a document card is visible in the Documentation tab, you have these actions.
Card-level actions — select the card to download the document, or select the ⋯ More options icon at the top-right of the card for the other actions:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Preview | Open the inline viewer to read the document without downloading it |
| Update | Re-upload or update the file from local storage |
| Delete | Remove the document attachment from the Automation Hub record |
| Download (select the card) | Download the document (for example, the .md / text package) to your local downloads folder |
Tab-level page actions — top-right of the Automation Files area:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Create Process Model | Start a process diagram/map workflow linked to this record |
| Add File | Manually attach supplemental material (architecture diagrams, sample datasets, supporting specifications) to the process profile |
