Save Workspace

I've got six workflows up on my screen now and must reboot. I would like the option to save the workspace and reopen all flows at once.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks for the idea Mark! We're working on something that will allow you to save all open workflows as well as a method to save workflows as a group and then later open them as a group. Would that help in this the scenario you've described?

@RachelW,

 

perfect!  Thanks for the update.

I was thinking something like an internet browser where you have your default load settings: new workflow, pinned/specific workflows (like saved home pages), or restore previous session.

@willperkins Thanks for the response. That's a good idea. We won't have that going into the 2018.2 release, but I'll keep it in mind for future enhancements. In the 2018.2 release, you'll see a new feature to allow you to create and open a Workflow Group, which is essentially a shortcut to open all the workflows in that group. I hope this will help with ease of use and your productivity. I'm looking forward to your feedback post release.
