FAQs​

How to find the workflow ID​

  1. Open the workflow for which you want to get the workflow ID.
  2. Copy the number after workflow/ in your URL and paste that in the Workflow ID field.

How does data get passed from one workflow to another?​

Let's say that there's a Execute Workflow node in Workflow A. The Execute Workflow node calls another workflow, Workflow B.

  • The Execute Workflow node passes the data to the Start node of Workflow B.
  • The last node of Workflow B sends the data back to the Execute Workflow node in Workflow A.
