Solutions in the Local Workspace

Depending on your collaboration needs, you can store solutions either in the cloud or locally on your machine.

Solutions stored in the cloud are managed from the Cloud Workspace page, while those stored locally are managed from the Local Workspace page.

Inside the Local Workspace page, you have the option to create a new solution or open an existing one.

To create a new local solution:

  1. Select the Create New button.
  2. Choose the type of solution you want to create on your machine. A new browser window opens.
  3. Navigate to the folder inside which you want the solution code to be stored.
  4. Select the folder.
  5. Click on the Select Folder button. A new browser pop-up message appears, asking you to allow Studio Web to edit files on your machine.
  6. Inside the pop-up message, select Allow. Your new local solution opens.
    Note:

    Selecting the Don't Allow button returns you to the Local Workspace page without creating the solution.

To open an existing local solution:

  1. Select the Open solution button. A new browser window opens.
  2. Navigate to the folder that contains the solution.
  3. Select the folder.
  4. Click on the Select Folder button. A new browser pop-up message appears, asking you to allow Studio Web to edit files on your machine.
  5. Inside the pop-up message, select Allow. Your new local solution opens.

The Local Workspace page shows a list of available local solutions. Select the See more button next to a solution to:

  • Duplicate your solution.
  • Pin your solution to the top of the list.
  • Open your solution in Studio Desktop.
  • Remove the solution from the list by selecting the Remove from recent option.
    Note:

    Due to browser technical limitations, the full path on disk cannot be displayed in the Local Workspace page.

Known issues

IndexedDB error

The error "Internal error opening backing store for indexedDB.open." may sometimes occur when working on a local solution in a Chromium browser (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, etc.). The IndexedDB folder stores data locally for websites and browser extensions. This error is unrelated to Studio Web and can be caused by external factors, such as:

  • Exceeding the browser storage quota.
  • Accessing Studio Web in private/Incognito mode.
  • Browser extensions (ad blockers or privacy extensions that block storage).
  • Corrupted domain data in the IndexedDB folder.
  • Other browser-related bugs.

Studio Web detects if browser storage becomes corrupted and prompts you to clear the stored site data. For Google Chrome, follow these steps:

  1. Open Google Chrome.
  2. Navigate to Settings > Privacy and security > Site settings.
  3. Select View permissions and data stored across sites.
  4. Search for the domain name (for example, cloud.uipath.com).
  5. Delete the domain data.
  6. Refresh the browser page.

Alternatively, you can delete the domain folder stored locally on your machine:

  1. Navigate to the IndexedDB folder (for example, C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\IndexedDB).
  2. Locate the appropriate domain folder (for example, https_cloud.uipath.com_0.indexeddb.leveldb).
  3. Delete the domain folder.

Please be aware that deleting the domain folder also clears the list of recently opened solutions. However, this action does not delete the actual solutions stored locally.
