Copy/Paste Functionality in Workflows

Building workflows is now faster and more reliable. Alloy’s new copy/paste functionality enables teams to easily reuse workflow components within and across workflows, and across accounts. 

Portability Across Workflows

With this release, copy/paste is supported across a range of contexts.

You can now:

  • Copy/Paste entire workflows or specific nodes (includes upstream logic from the node)
  • Paste logic across workflows in the same account
  • Paste logic between test and production accounts

Merge Logic: Paste with Confidence

When pasting, Alloy’s system will automatically:

  • Merge existing objects with the same name and settings
  • Merge thresholds with “or” statements
  • Duplicate and append “(1)” for objects with the same name but different logic. You can rename before confirming changes.
  • Flag modified and added objects upon paste, allowing users to confirm changes or undo. 

How It Works

  1. To copy the entire workflow, use keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C in the editor or navigate to “Copy Workflow” in the ellipses menu.
  2. To copy a specific node, select “Copy” from the node’s ellipses menu.
  3. Navigate and click into the destination workflow or object.
  4. Use Ctrl+V or navigate to “Paste from Clipboard” in the ellipses menu.
  5. Review any flagged changes and save.
