How to move an existing workflow from one instance to another

[taqdeer]

Hi All,

I have a workflow created in test instance. I want to move that workflow to dev instance. Please note that workflow creation was not captured in an update set previously. Can any one please help me in moving it to test instance.

Moving XML is not a good practice. Try to avoid it.

Can you try the steps I provided? This is how you should do it in a real/customer environment.

Hi Taqdeer,

Moving XMLs for data & script would be fine but for Workflow as you rightly figured multiple versions may cause some confusion. You can checkout the workflow & Publish the same. Better follow steps suggested by Willem.
