How do I import workflow-related files from my computer?

Purpose

Use this procedure to import one or more files from your computer to the Workflows views.

You can import any supported file type from the views in the Main or Templates section of the view selector:

  • Workflows

  • Actions

  • Environments

  • Jinja2

Multiple files of different types can be imported in the same operation.

The following file types can be imported:

  • packages (.zip)

  • workflows (.yaml)

    Workflow zip files can contain input files in JSON format. The JSON file should have the same name as the workflow, for example, workflow1.json.

    Workflows are imported in DRAFT status.

  • environment files (.env)

  • actions (.action)

  • Jinja2 templates (.jinja)
