Sometimes you may want to share a workflow you’ve created with others or import one that someone else has created. Here’s how you can do this in OpenOps.

Exporting workflows

To export a workflow:
  1. Open the workflow you want to export in the workflow editor.
  2. Click the arrow next to the workflow name in the top left of the editor.
  3. Click Export: Workflow editor controls
  4. Save the workflow as a JSON file to your computer.
A workflow export file contains all actions and properties of the original workflow. It does not include the connection settings used in your OpenOps installation. When importing into a different OpenOps installation, the recipient will need to configure their own connections.

Importing workflows

To import a workflow:
  1. Click New Workflow to create a new empty workflow in your OpenOps installation.
  2. In the top left of the workflow editor, click the arrow next to the workflow name.
  3. Click Import: Workflow editor controls
  4. In the Import Workflow dialog, click Choose file.
  5. Select the downloaded JSON file.
  6. Click Import.
  7. If the imported workflow requires connections that your OpenOps instance doesn’t have, you’ll be prompted to create them.
  8. Once you’ve finished creating connections, click Create workflow.
