Identify and count formulas used in workflows

Question

Hi, I've been asked to count the number and type of formulas used in a series of workflows down to attribute level that are held in a hierarchy of folders.

The rational is based on how much data manipulation has taken place over a defined set of workflows to calculate the compound risk of data transformation per dataset. I have no idea if this can be done nor how to go about it.

Hi @GuyHarveyj

All of this information would be in the workflow's XML. You can parse the XML to get these details. There was just an blog posted on this topic that could get you started in the right direction:
