Publish Workflow

Publish a workflow so the current draft becomes the active published version. You can optionally provide a title and description for the version changelog.

The request body is the same regardless of the workflow's graph structure — you only need the current checksum and optional version metadata.

You can obtain the latest checksum from:

• Create workflow response (data.checksum), or

• Update workflow response (data.checksum), or

• Get workflow by id (data.checksum) — most reliable; always reflects server state.

Publish workflow

post

Publish a workflow — promotes the current draft to an active published version.

Prerequisites:

• The workflow must have been tested at least once after the last update (testedAt must be non-null).

• checksum must match the server's current value. Get it from: Create response, Update response, or GET /dev/v1/workflow/{entity-id} → data.checksum.

title and description are optional version changelog fields — use them to label releases (e.g. v1.0, Hotfix-2026-05).

To retrieve a specific published version's graph later, call GET /dev/v1/workflow/{entity-id}?version=v1.
