Find and Replace (ALL) in a workflow?

BosKev

Hi All,

 

I built a fairly large workflow with over 300 tools, its been working fairly well for the past 1-2 years with minor update on business processes. Now there is a major update on the data connected to this workflow and some of the key words changed. Is there an easy way for me to do a find and replace all on certain key words within the entire workflow?

 

I'm thinking opening the workflow up as xml or text and do a find a replace in notepad? I never looked at the workflow in xml or text before any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi @BosKev 

 

I generally use Notepad++ to do this.

Just open the .yxmd file of the workflow as an xml file and to the modifications.

 

You can use Ctrl+H as a shortcut to do this.
