Move actions to a new position in your workflow without deleting and recreating them. This is useful when you want to change the order of steps, restructure a flow, or move actions in or out of a branch.
Who can do this
Users with Manage permission on the workflow.
How to reorder an action
- Open the workflow in the editor.
- Hover over the action you want to move.
- Drag it across the canvas. Drop zones appear between every step in the workflow.
- Release the action over the drop zone where you want it to live. The workflow saves automatically.
If you change your mind mid-drag, drop the action away from any drop zone and it returns to its original position.
What you can move
- Reorder actions within the same flow.
- Move an action into a branch.
- Move an action out of a branch and back into the main flow.
- Move an action between branches.
What you can't move
- Branch nodes (e.g. If/Else) cannot be dragged. Their structure stays in place; only the actions inside them can be moved.
- Trigger and End nodes are fixed.
Tips
- Reordering preserves all action configuration. You don't need to reconnect inputs or rebuild the action.
- If a moved action depends on data from a step that's now downstream of it, the workflow validation will flag it. Adjust the order or update the action's inputs accordingly.
