Create default (or multiple) Workflow Configurations - Specifically for Canvas

I find that each time I create a new Workflow, I have to go into the "Workflow  - Configuration" and update to the settings I would like even though they are usually consistent.

 

Usually this is checking the "Cancel Running Workflow on Error" box (so if I am connected to Salesforce and my Password or Security Key changes it will not lock me out by continuing to connect as well as letting me know right away if there is an error)

 

If there was an option to save different Workflow Settings (so we can name them based on their use) for different purposes so when anyone presses "New Workflow" they can choose a specific one to work from - important to have a default one that is used most (Sometimes it's nice to have Horizontal - other times Vertical | Sometimes we want annotations, other times we don't).

 I agree, this would be extremely helpful when building new workflows.

A lot of configurations have to be changed between building and deploying the workflow. For example, turning on output, turning off browse, enabling email notification... Alteryx should support continuous delivery.
