Changing the Trigger item... without redoing the whole workflow?
Status: Open · Asked by woodennickel on · 0 views
I have a workflow where I want to change the first block, the trigger.
My goal is to delete the current trigger and replace it with a different one. However, this doesn't seem to be possible.
I thought of an alternative approach: going to the original workflow, copying the second step using the "Copy Step" option, and pasting it into a new workflow with the new trigger. Unfortunately, that doesn't work either. It seems like you can't copy a step from one workflow to another.
Now, I'm a bit confused. Is this even possible, or will I have to rebuild the entire workflow from scratch?
Hi @woodennickel,
Yes, it is absolutely possible to change the trigger of your existing workflow without rebuilding everything from scratch.
I have shared a short screencast demonstrating both:
- How to change the trigger in an existing workflow
- How to copy and paste steps between workflows
Please go through it, and it should clarify the process. Kindly note that this demonstration is based on the New UI. If you are using the Old UI, please let me know so I can share the relevant screencast accordingly.

If the issue still persists, please share a screencast of your setup or provide the workflow URL. Additionally, you may grant us permission to access your account so we can review the setup and assist you more effectively.
Looking forward to your update.

Thank you...
I kept trying to add the new one, insert it, delete the old one, etc... never thought of just changing it!!
Glad we were able to help.
