Move apps

You can move apps between workspaces in Workflow Designer by using the Move app functionality of the actions menu:

• On the Apps page, find the app and click the more icon next to it.
• From an individual app page, click Actions next to the name of the app in the navigation menu.

Important considerations

When you move an entire app to a different workspace, all associated revisions are included in the move.

However, there are specific scenarios to be aware of:

• Conflicts: A conflict arises when a model in your app is linked to other models outside your app, or when a model from another app references a model in your app. In these situations, the conflicted models are copied instead of moved. The app retains its revisions, but there is no model history for the conflicted models.
• Clashes: A clash occurs if there are models in the target workspace that have the same key as models in the app that you are moving. In such cases, the app revisions are lost. Additionally, no history is available for those models.

The move operation provides advanced options that allow you to choose how to handle these conflicts:

• Warn and stop: If the target workspace contains models with keys identical to the ones being moved, the operation stops with a warning. This prevents unintended overwrites or duplicate creations without explicit user intervention.
• Copy conflicted models to the target workspace: This is the default behavior for conflicts.
• Update existing models with moved versions: The moved models replace the existing models that have the same key.
• Create new keys and move as new models: The keys of the moved models are renamed by appending a sequential number to the key names.

Copying apps

You can copy a specific app revision into a different workspace using the Copy into workspace action available in the Revisions section and use this as an effective way to copy an app to a different workspace.
