Reorder workflow actions

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

  1. Open the workflow in the editor.
  2. Hover over the action you want to move.
  3. Drag it across the canvas. Drop zones appear between every step in the workflow.
  4. 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.
