Blueprint Product Licensing

  • Blueprint uses a time-bound, bot-centric licensing model: you purchase a license for a number of bots over a specified term, with no user-count limits. Licenses are consumed per bot on first use and remain non-transferable—removing a bot does not free its license. Once consumed, all features of that product (including re-imports) are available for the licensed term.
For Blueprint Suite, the number of Assess licenses must be equal to or greater than number of Migrate licenses.

Definition of a Bot for Licensing Purposes

Regardless of the RPA tool from which Blueprint imports data, it considers a bot to be all the code from the execution starting point (the Main module) through all the modules it calls as part of execution (a Call Tree or Dependency Tree).

To translate what this means into the language of the RPA tools Blueprint supports:

When working with data from this RPA Tool

A Blueprint “Bot” means:

UiPath

The Main xaml in a UiPath Process along with all other xamls being referenced.

Blue Prism

The Main page in a Blue Prism Process along with all other process and object pages being referenced.

Automation Anywhere

Root taskbot (i.e. a taskbot not called by any other taskbot), along with all other taskbots being referenced

Power Automate Desktop

A desktop Flow

 

Consumption of Licenses

See Activation and License Consumption for more information about how licenses are consumed in Blueprint.

Tracking License Availability and Use

As previously mentioned, Products are the way Blueprint licenses use of its technology. For example:

  • When an organization purchases the Blueprint Migrate product, they are purchasing a time-limited license to use the Migrate part of the Conversion technology for a specified number of bots.
  • When an organization purchases the Blueprint Assess product, they are purchasing a time-limited license to use:
    • The Migrate Dashboard part of the Conversion technology and
    • The Analyze part of the Extraction technology

See table below for a summary.
