Hi @yc151 , you are missing a tool that you used in your workflow, probably a macro tool that you created. You could save as .yxzp to include that tool in your packaged workflow.

Hi @yc151 ,

 

My guess is that something interrupted Designer when saving your workflow. SharePoint keeps versions of files saved so maybe check to see if the previous is still good and - hopefully - has all your changes or most.

 

You may also check to see if your latest changes were saved by Alteryx auto-recover.
