Workflow Validation

Team,

 

I would like to disable the Workflow Validation as it takes a long time to update the workflow. I don't find the option under File--> Save.

Am I searching for the option at the wrong place?

 

Regards,

Alwin

Hi @allwynbazil 

 

The workflow validation will be available when you are trying to save the workflow to Gallery.

 

It will pop up when File -> Save As -> Private Gallery -> Then you will have a check box to enable/disable Validate workflow.

Thanks, @ShankerV.

 

May I know how it helps if we save our workflows in Gallery?

Hi @allwynbazil 

 

Gallery is used for scheduling the workflow to run automatically at frequent intervals.

Is there a way to stop the validation If I save the workflow in the system?

Hi @allwynbazil 

 

Please be informed that, the validation of the workflow happens only when trying to save to Gallery.

Not for your local desktop.

Can you please share some more screenshots as the issue might be due to any other also.

 

Many thanks

You are right. The validate workflow option is not showing for me. However, it automatically validates the entire workflow after every update and it is annoying sometimes.
