Multiple Regions - Maestro - Action Center task creation failing
Final update
## Customer impact Between September 14, 2026 at 12:45 UTC and September 16, 2026 at 17:30 UTC, a subset of customers experienced failures when Maestro processes attempted to create human-in-the-loop tasks in Action Center. The first customer report reached UiPath on September 16 at 12:24 UTC and an incident was declared at 14:37 UTC, so a number of process runs failed before the issue was formally identified. Affected process runs faulted at the human-in-the-loop step with the error "Invalid input for the HITL task" and no Action Center task was created. No tasks were lost or duplicated, and no data was corrupted. Process runs that had already passed the human-in-the-loop step were not affected. The impact was limited to a small subset of organizations, primarily in the United States, Canada, Australia, and India regions, whose Maestro processes met a specific condition: the process used an Action App and the app's folder path had no value at run time. Canada and Singapore received the change but had no affected process runs. _**Action for affected customers: process runs that failed during this window did not recover automatically. If you have process runs that faulted at a human
