### URP Programs

URP program files are the most used file format for Universal Robots programs usually edited inside **polyscope** environment.

URP programs files are displayed inside project explorer with ![](https://175138337-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fvxlh3prlGsBGF30oqbYW%2Fuploads%2FMsyKfyipBDCcO3P908LK%2Fur_urp_filetype.png?alt=media\&token=7b1c82b6-8347-4edd-84fb-3015fe8e388e) icon and .urp extension. 

Robpod Studio support a simple URP preview, which can display all the **scripts referenced** by the URP program.
