Cannot Add Workflow to a Collection

[cpet13]

I have two workflows I published that were part of one specific collection. I removed them from that collection with the intent of adding them to a different collection. But when I go to the collection and click on Workflows => Add and start typing in the name of either of the workflows, they do not show up. I also have schedules for the workflows; I was able to remove the schedules from the first collection and then add them to the second. But I can't add the workflows to the second collection; I can't even add them back into the first collection that I had removed them from. Any ideas on what is going on?

"But when I go to the collection and click on Workflows => Add and start typing in the name of either of the workflows, they do not show up. "

Usually, when I've seen this, it turns out the workflow is already in the collection. It won't show up as an option to add if its already in there. Is that possible here?

@cpet13 check if you have permission to add the workflow to the collection & if the workflow is present in your home page.

Thank you for the idea, but the collection is a brand new one that I created with no workflows in it yet.

I'm an admin on the server. When I created the collection, I made sure to add my user group to the User Groups section of the collection and to give the user group the ability to Add Assets, Remove Assets, Update Assets, etc.

I have made sure and I can see the workflows on my home screen under My Files.

May be a MongoDB issue. Either the search engine needs to be reindexed or commandQueueItems Collection (table) is backlogged with pending update requests.

Here's a KB article that may help, but always be careful when interacting directly with the embedded MongoDB instance, or contact Alteryx support for guidance.
