Last updated 1 year ago

Users have the option of sharing workflows by downloading them as .dataflo files and sharing via email, shared drive, etc. This is another way to either use a workflow as is or adapt it to fit your needs.

  1. In the bottom right corner of your Workflow homepage, click the purple Plus Button and select "Import File".

  2. Locate where the .dataflo file is stored on your computer or drive and press Open.

  3. Data-flo brings you to the canvas page. Note, the workflow retains the same name as the original file; however, any changes you make will not impact the original workflow.
