Overview
What’s changing
Workflows V1 is the original workflow builder in Enterprise Knowledge. It is being deprecated following the launch of Workflows V2 in September 2025, which introduces a redesigned interface, improved performance, and expanded capabilities for building agentic automation workflows. Workflows V1 remains fully functional until September 7, 2026. Use the migration tool now to move your workflows to V2.What to expect next
1
Announcement — Completed
Workflows V1 was announced for deprecation. Existing workflows continued to run normally with no changes required.
2
June 1, 2026 — Migration tool available (v2.1.0)
The migration tool is now live in the platform. A call-to-action (CTA) appears in the Workflows V1 interface allowing you to migrate your existing workflows to V2 in place — without having to rebuild them manually.
3
September 7th, 2026 — Removal
On September 7th, 2026, Workflows V1 will be removed from Enterprise Knowledge. Any workflow that has not been migrated to V2 by this date will stop functioning.
The in-platform migration tool is live as of June 1, 2026 (v2.1.0). Migrate your V1 workflows before September 7, 2026 to avoid disruption.
Impact
Workflows built in V1 will continue to run until September 7, 2026. Once removed, any workflow that has not been migrated to V2 will stop functioning.Migration tool now available
The Migrate Flow tool is live. You can migrate any V1 workflow today — V1 workflows continue to run normally until September 7, 2026.
Action required before September 7, 2026
Any workflow still on V1 after the removal date will stop functioning. Use the migration tool to move your workflows to V2 now.
Why we’re making this change
Workflows V2 (Workflow Builder v2) was launched in EKB v1.7.0 and represents the future of workflow building in Enterprise Knowledge. It replaces the original interface with a more intuitive, visual builder while expanding what’s possible for agentic automation.Updated visual interface
A redesigned drag-and-drop canvas makes it easier to build, connect, and configure workflow components without navigating complex menus.
More trigger types
Workflows V2 supports four trigger types: Manual Input, File Upload, Schedule, and Email — enabling a wider range of automation scenarios.
Richer component library
Drag Agents, Tools, Conditions, and Final Outputs directly onto the canvas and link them visually to build multi-step agentic workflows.
Variable passing with @
Pass data between steps using the
@ symbol to reference variables, enabling dynamic, connected workflows across components.Execution debugging
The Executions log lets you inspect every step of a past run — inputs, outputs, and results — making it easier to identify and fix failures.
Version history
Every published workflow saves a version history. You can view previous versions and restore and republish an earlier version at any time.
Frequently asked questions
Does Workflows V2 support everything V1 does?
Does Workflows V2 support everything V1 does?
Workflows V2 covers all the actively used toolkits and nodes of V1 use cases today. If your workflow relies on a toolkit or feature that isn’t yet available on V2, reach out to your Account or Engagement Manager for further assistance.
Do I need to do anything right now?
Do I need to do anything right now?
Yes. The migration tool is live as of June 1, 2026. Use the Migrate Flow button in the Workflows V1 interface to migrate each workflow to V2. Workflows V1 will be removed on September 7, 2026 — any workflow not migrated by then will stop functioning.
Will my workflows be automatically migrated?
Will my workflows be automatically migrated?
No. Migration is not automatic. A CTA in the Workflows V1 interface lets you migrate each workflow to V2 in place. You will need to trigger the migration manually and verify the result.
What happens if I don't migrate before the removal date?
What happens if I don't migrate before the removal date?
Any workflow still on V1 after September 7, 2026 will stop functioning. Agents or automations that depend on those workflows will be affected. We strongly recommend completing migration as early as possible.
Will the migration preserve my workflow configuration?
Will the migration preserve my workflow configuration?
The in-platform migration tool is designed to carry over your existing workflow configuration to V2. Once migrated, review the workflow in V2 to confirm all steps, triggers, and settings carried over correctly before decommissioning the V1 version.
Can I keep using V1 after V2 is the default?
Can I keep using V1 after V2 is the default?
Yes, until September 7, 2026. If you need to retain V1 workflows beyond that date, contact your Automation Anywhere account manager as early as possible to discuss your options.
