Hello,

This is working correct because Workflow will get attached only if KB article is in 'Review' state, another way to confirm is through 'Active context' table.

Workflow contexts | ServiceNow (service-now.com)

Once workflow is attached it will create entry in above table.

Once you open entry from context table you can see workflow attached to it.

Lastly there is no 'Show workflow' UI action on Knowledge table so if you want one you need to create one

Hi @Musab Rasheed 

Donot we have an option when the article is in draft state the workflow get attached as show workflow

because i do have requirement on this.

 

Generally workflow is attached at knowledge base level, so if you want workflow to get attached at draft level then you need to tweak 'Publish Workflow' accordingly. Each Knowledge base has different workflow so see which one you want to tweak. This is honestly not a good practice to attach workflow at draft stage but it's upto you.
