Extract inputs and outputs connection details from Workflows in the Gallery

Question

Hi,

I have more than 100 Workflows in the Gallery and would like to extract all inputs and outputs details from everyone of them.

Is there anybody who could suggest how to proceed?

How can I download the XML of every workflows?

Thank you

Now that you have the files, you just need to read them. Create a workflow to read the YXMD as XML. You can use a Dynamic Input, build your own macro or use one that is available such as https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Community-Gallery/Read-Workflow-XML-from-an-YXZP-file/ta-p/925563

Hi Gabriel,

I have donwloaded all packages now, and unzipped them.

How would you recommend to move on now?

To download all workflows from the Server I encourage you to use APIs. Here are the endpoints you need:

* Lists all workflows, you can filter the ones you need: /admin/v1/workflows
* Download the package: /admin/v1/{appId}/package
