Saving & Publishing

Draft vs. Published

Every workflow exists in two states:

  • Draft — your working copy. Changes here do not affect live executions until published.
  • Published — the active revision that responds to triggers (webhooks, schedules, etc.).

Saving the draft

Click Save in the editor header to persist your current changes to the server. Save does not activate the workflow — it only saves the draft. The Save button is disabled when there are no unsaved changes.

tip

Get into the habit of saving frequently. Navigating away without saving will lose unsaved changes.

Publishing (Promote Draft)

Publishing activates the draft as a new numbered revision. This:

  • Registers any Webhook Trigger URLs
  • Activates any Schedule Trigger cron jobs
  • Archives the previously published revision

To publish, click Publish (or the Promote Draft action). Add an optional comment to describe the changes in this revision.

Revision history

Every publish creates a revision entry. View the full history from the workflow's History page. Each entry shows the revision number, publish date, status (Published, Archived), and your comment.

Rolling back

To revert to a previous revision, open the History page, find the revision you want, and click Roll Back. This creates a new draft from that revision's snapshot, which you then publish.

Read-only views

Opening a workflow by a specific revision ID (e.g. from the History page) loads it in read-only mode. The canvas and property sheets are visible but cannot be edited. A "Read-only view" banner appears in the header.
