Can we revert workflow to a previous version?

Hi can we revert workflow to a previous version?

What would be best practice for having a back-up for workflow.

Thanks,

Tadz

For deactivating the current.

var getInc = new GlideRecord('wf_workflow_version');

if(getInc.get('3b95753ad0d60200085a28e2b5794e1e')) //change

{

getInc.published=false;

getInc.update();

}

To publish old one

var getInc = new GlideRecord('wf_workflow_version');

if(getInc.get('3b95753ad0d60200085a28e2b5794e1e')) //change

{

getInc.published=true;

getInc.update();

}

Holy most helpful post ever Batman....why isn't this documented somewhere!

Because it is a hack

Thanks for digging this up. Will create a small utility and post it here.

If you still just want to use this script (i.e. storing as as a fix script) instead of installing it as a UI action from the blog post in this thread, this is how I got the sys_ids.

Go to "Workflow Versions" and change the record filter to include unpublished (i.e. "All" and filter to contain the workflow name). The copy the URL for the two records to a notepad to extract the sysIDs.

Converted this to a platform solution instead of ad-hoc scripts. It is available here if someone is interested.
