Ways to convert a Workflow (Workflow Editor) to a Flow (Flow Designer)

Hello,

 

We have a development request where the workflows created previously using Workflow Editor need to be migrated to the current Flow Designer.

 

Is there any efficient way to do it without having to create the flows from scratch?

 

Thank you.

Hi @AkkeraD 

 

I actually investigated exactly the same some small time ago - here is what I found out:

 

  1. There is NO OOTB way to migrate a workflow to flow designer
  2. There is a store app that promise to do so, but that needs to be purchased
  3. There is an OOB UI Action on the wf_workflow_version table that will give you an XML export of the workflow, but by default it's only usable/visible if you have the maint role - until now. From Brazil release it will also be available for admin.

I looked at above possibilities and went with option 3 - I then ended the build agent with the XML record, where it made a fair output. As we haven't upgraded our instance for AI readiness / Brazil (not available yet), I can't state in general, this what just my own little POC.
