What Updates When I Publish My Workflow?

Updated May 13, 2026

When you’re editing a workflow, there will be a time when you want to publish your changes, set it live and start using it with your team.

You may have already run this workflow, in which case you can choose to push the updates you just made to all your active workflow runs. This is a great way to keep all of your workflow runs up to date, especially if you have lots of workflow runs already in progress.

And if your workflow isn’t quite perfect, don’t worry you can iterate on it as much as you need, setting those updates live in your workflow runs as you go!

Users: In order to publish workflows, you must be an Administrator or a Builder who has been given ‘edit’ access by your Administrator.

Update all in-progress workflow runs

Here’s a quick summary of what will update your active workflow runs when you push changes to them all at once.

Update each one manually

Alternatively, you can also choose to manually update your workflow runs on a need-to-update basis.

You can also choose whether or not to alert your team to update the workflow runs to the latest version, as shown below.

Track your update progress

When you update all active workflow runs at once, Process Street automatically generates a Run Update Report. The report shows the update status for each run — whether it’s scheduled or finished — so you can confirm the batch completed successfully.

To check progress:

  1. Navigate to Reports after triggering the update.
  2. Open the Run Update Report for your workflow.
  3. Click Refresh to see the latest status. There’s a 5-second cooldown between refreshes.

This is especially useful for large batches — you can watch runs move from scheduled to finished without checking each one individually.
