# Sharing Workflows

Beta Feature

Sharing individual workflows across Pipedream accounts is in beta and is subject to change.

You can share your workflows as templates with other Pipedream accounts with a unique shareable link.

Creating a share link for your workflow will allow anyone with the link to create a template version of your workflow in their own Pipedream account. This will allow others to use your workflow with their own Pipedream account and also their own connected accounts.

Here's an example of a workflow (opens new window) that sends you a daily SMS message with today's schedule:

Daily Schedule SMS Reminder workflow

Click the button below or copy and paste the link into your browser to instantly create a new workflow from this template:

The copied workflow includes the same trigger, steps, and connected account configuration, but it has a separate event history and versioning from the original.

To share a workflow, open the Builder for the workflow. Then in the top right menu, select Create Share Link.

Click "Create Share Link" in the workflow's settings within the builder to generate a sharable link

Now you can define which prop values should be included in this shareable link.

# Including props

Optionally, you can include the actual individual prop configurations as well. This helps speed up workflow development if the workflow relies on specific prop values to function properly.

You can choose to Include all prop values if you'd like, or only select specific props.

For the daily schedule reminder workflow, we included the props for filtering Google Calendar events, but we did not include the SMS number to send the message to. This is because the end user of this workflow will use their own phone number instead:

Sharing a workflow that will send a daily SMS message of your Google Calendar schedule for today

Connected Accounts are not shared

Shared workflow links do not include your own connected accounts. Instead, in this new workflow, the user of your workflow link is prompted to connect their own accounts.

# Versioning

When you create a shared link for your workflow, that link is frozen to the version of your workflow at the time the link was created.

If changes are made to the original workflow, the changes will not be included in the shared workflow link, nor in any workflows copied from the original shared link.

Generate a new share link to include new changes to a workflow.

Share links persist

You can create multiple share links for the same workflow with different prop configurations, or even different steps.

Share links will not expire or be overridden.

# Frequently Asked Questions

No, workflows copied from a shared link will have separate version histories from the original workflow. You can modify your original workflow and it will not affect copied workflows.

# Will my connected accounts be shared with the workflow?

No, your connected accounts are not shared. Instead, copied workflows display a slot in actions that require a connected account, so the user of the copied workflow can provide their own accounts instead.

For example, if one of your steps relies on a Slack connected account to send a message, then the copied workflow will display the need to connect a Slack account.

No, if the steps and prop configuration of the workflow is exactly the same, then the shared link URL will also be exactly the same.

The shared workflow link is determined by the configuration of your workflow, it's not a randomly generated ID.

No, each link you generate will be available even if you create new versions based on changes or included props from the original workflow.

# What plan is this feature available on?

Sharing workflows via link is available on all plans, including the Free tier plans.

# Do users of my workflow need to have a subscription?

To copy a workflow, a subscription is not required. However, the copied workflow is subject to the current workspace's plan limits.

For example, if a workflow requires more connected accounts than what's available on the Free tier, then users of your workflow will require a plan to run the workflow properly.

# Will copies of my workflow use my credits?

No. Copied workflows have entirely separate versioning, connected accounts, and billing. Sharing workflow copies is free, and the user of the copy usage is responsible for credit usage. Your original workflow is entirely separate from the copy.

# How can I transfer all of my workflows from one account to another?

It's only possible to share a single workflow at time with a link at this time.
