  2. Enter the Page URL where you want to embed your Workflow and click Update.
    Remember, the correct URL is crucial for notification emails and the Submissions page to work correctly.

    Note

    This URL is vital for linking workflow steps and can be found in notification emails and on the Submissions page.

Make changes to a published Workflow

If you need to modify a published Workflow, click the Clone button in the action panel next to your Workflow name. Make changes to the cloned workflow as needed.

Workflows status

There are three statuses for a workflow:

  • Draft (yellow icon)
    The workflow is being edited and hasn’t been published yet. It’s the initial status, allowing changes as needed.
  • Published (blue icon)
    The workflow is published and ready to receive submissions. Once published, further edits are not possible.
  • Broken (red icon)
    A workflow becomes broken if forms within it are archived, deleted, or sharing is stopped. To resolve this, ensure all forms are in the published status.
