How to duplicate a flow
- Go to your Unito Dashboard and find the flow you want to duplicate.
- Click on the upright ellipses (⋮).
- Click on Duplicate.
- This will take you to the flow creation screen. Pick the blocks of work you want to sync.
- Finish creating your flow. Rules and field mappings will be automatically pulled from your original flow.
Note: Unito will let you know if any of the duplicated rules are not accessible by the blocks of the new flow.
How to duplicate flows from the workflow designer
If your workflow has more than one flow, you may notice a pop-up when you click on the plus sign to edit your flow.
To duplicate your flow, you just need to click on Start from an existing flow. From there, you can pick the flow you want to start from and then follow the same steps as above.
The rules and field mappings from the original flow will be automatically duplicated. All that's needed is to quickly review the settings to make sure they match your flow, and you're done!
What is and isn't duplicated
Your rules and custom field mappings will be automatically copied when you duplicate your flow, as well as flow direction. So if your original flow is set up to sync in one direction, your duplicated flow will automatically copy this over.
Here are a few things flow duplication can't do quite yet:
-
Duplicate auto-sync status. Duplicated flows will automatically be switched to only sync new items until you change this.
-
You can't change the tool account used in a duplicated flow.
Other considerations before duplicating Unito flows
- You can't duplicate a flow if you're not the user who added the blocks of work synced in that original flow to your Unito workspace.
- Only the Unito user who created the original flow can duplicate it.
