Making changes to a scheduled workflow

[xiaohanh]

Suppose I create a workflow and schedule it to run daily. Then a week later, I make changes to the workflow; will the scheduled workflow now automatically run the latest version of the workflow or will I have to delete the previous schedule and reschedule this new workflow?

Thanks!

Hi @xiaohanh 

It depends on which option you choose.

Here's a very conclusive explanation from @KaneG from another topic.

"If you use Scheduling from the gallery then updating the published version will update what is scheduled.

If you are using the Legacy/Traditional Scheduling function from the GUI,

If the workflow is scheduled to 'Run from Disk', then you should just update the workflow at that location.

If the Workflow is scheduled to 'Run from Scheduler DB' then you can hit the Update App, Workflow or Package button on the Workflows tab of the scheduling window. 

You should not have to delete the Workflow/Schedule and re-add it unless you want to change the times that it is scheduled."

Cheers,

Got it, thank you Thableaus!
