Folders

A folder groups your workflows so a long list stays readable. That is all it does.

It is worth being explicit about what a folder does not do, because the name suggests more than it is:

• It does not change how anything runs — no schedules, no alerts, no limits.
• It does not travel. Filing your copy of someone's workflow does not file theirs, and an author filing theirs does not touch yours. Everyone files their own.
• It does not group other people's things. A folder holds your own rows.

Pausing or deleting a whole folder

The Pause and Delete buttons on a folder simply do the same thing to each workflow in it, one by one — exactly as if you had opened each one. So pausing a folder of shared workflows pauses their followers' copies too, for the same reason it would have if you paused them individually. The folder adds no new behaviour of its own.

Sharing a folder

A folder can be made public, which puts it in Discover as a set. Only the workflows inside it that are themselves public are shown — making the folder public does not publish its contents.

Someone importing from a public folder takes a copy of each workflow one at a time, the same as importing them individually. The folder itself is not shared or linked; they end up with the workflows, not with your folder.

Folders live in the Workflows tab.
