Each operation calls one or more workflows. See the Workflows tutorial on the Network Developer Portal for information about updating workflows.

Important! Operation types and workflows provided with the NSP for NE upgrade are signed by Nokia. Signed artifacts cannot be modified. If you choose to manually clone, edit and re-deploy a signed artifact, the clone is not signed.
