Manage Workflow Asset

[ayush_mishra]

If I have checked assets (for e.g. Macro file) while saving a workflow to the server. Does it mean after workflow is published to the server and then I make any changes to the asset (Macro file). I will not need to re-publish my workflow to the Server?

Hi @ayush_mishra 

When the box is checked:

• The asset is packed and uploaded to the gallery with the workflow.
• To change the macro, you must open the workflow from the gallery, make changes, and upload it again.

When the box is unchecked:

• The workflow tries to access the asset/macro from its fullpath during each run.
• This works if the server machine also can access the macro's path, especially for shared network folders.
• You can update the macro directly in the shared folder, and workflows using it will automatically use the updated version.

Thanks @Felipe_Ribeir0  if I go with 2nd option (uncheck), will it cause workflow execution to slow down because it is going to call the asset during execution.

@ayush_mishra i usually go with this option, and i never noticed any considerable delay. It works fine if your network shared drive is working properly.
