2018.4 vs. 2018.2

Question

We have some team members that are on the 2018.2 version of Alteryx. They are having issues using the 2018.4 workflows that we have created. Is there a way to open the workflow in 2018.4 and save it as a 2018.2 workflow? We didn't know they weren't on the same version so they have been creating new workflows since they couldnt' access the 2018.4 version.

thank you!

HI @mrc if you open any workflow in a text editor you can see the xml that makes it. The second line of this specifies the version number of the workflow

You can then edit this manually

and then save. The workflow will now be downgraded.
