Smartsheet Bridge: Duplicate a Workflow

I think it would be extremely helpful to be able to copy/duplicate a workflow that you've created in Smartsheet Bridge in order to slightly modify it for another task without losing your original.

Currently, the only way to do this would be to copy the same workflow into a different workspace. The issue with this is that it maintains the same name, which can get confusing, and you have to move around to multiple workspaces to get all the elements you may need. Especially if you may want to use the same parent workflow for multiple child workflows at different times.

What do you all think?

Thanks!

We love this idea, too! While it's not a part of our current plan, giving workflow creators more capabilities like this is the kind of thing our team is thinking about every day. If we believe we can make this idea a reality, we'll plan to update the status here.

Agreed. I'd like to be able to clone my flows and then rename the clone, so I don't have to start from scratch each time.

yes please, this would be so helpful. It's very time consuming to duplicate a workflow and then make small tweaks like sheet ids.

Ditto - I would like to be able to replicate common used sheets into future work spaces.

Sharing Contacts
We currently cannot share our contact list with other users. This is very cumbersome for our company. We use Smartsheet to create a punch list for our vendors.

Highlight cell feature (Background Color)
I like to highlight cells and also turn off the highlighting manually to track revisions. It would be great if I could easily toggle between the two. Normal operation: When highlighter (cell fill) is set to color and I select an uncolored cell, it will fill with color. Feature: Highlighter remains selected with color.…
