AD01 Blue Prism Developer Exam – Practice Questions & 2026 Exam Guide
Exam Update: The Blue Prism Developer exam (formerly AD01) has been updated. The current version has 60 questions in 75 minutes, uses scaled scoring (600 to pass), and is booked through Certiverse. Starting July 1, 2026, the Developer certification is valid for 3 years.
AD01 is the exam code for the Blue Prism Developer certification. The current exam has 60 questions, a 75-minute time limit, and a scaled passing score of 600 (on a 200–800 scale). It has no formal prerequisites, and the certification is valid for 3 years.
The Blue Prism Developer exam validates your understanding of the essential concepts and functionality every Blue Prism developer needs. It’s for candidates with core robotic automation knowledge who can build and configure processes and business objects across different Blue Prism environments.
AD01 has long been the most searched code for this exam. SS&C Blue Prism has since updated the exam format and scoring, and the certification is now called Blue Prism® Developer (previously “Accredited Developer”).

Object Development and Process Development make up 70% of the exam, so most of your preparation should go into building business objects and processes in Object Studio and Process Studio.
The Developer exam no longer uses a simple percentage. Your raw score (the number of correct answers) is converted to a scale from 200 to 800, and 600 is the pass mark. So a 600 doesn’t mean you answered a fixed percentage correctly. Aim to be solid in all four domains rather than targeting a set number of correct answers.
