Symptoms


How do we transfer a K2 Studio workflow over to another computer so that it works exactly the same like it was never moved to a new machine?

Resolution

A workflow file is usually created and stored locally. When deployed it to written and also stored within the K2 database.

1. If you are looking for the physical workflow file (.kprx) for K2 Studio, it will can usually be found at 'C:Users{Username}DocumentsK2Studio' for the {username} that had created the K2 Studio project/workflow. The '.kprx' file is the actual workflow file that would have the information regarding how this workflow was designed. The '.k2proj' determines the category name that the workflow is deployed to so when deployed the workflow will have naming convention 'k2projnamekprxname'. I would recommend copying the whole folder that would contain both '.k2proj' file and the '.kprx' file.

2. If you are looking for the deployed version of the workflow. It can be downloaded from K2 Workspace and extracted to retrieve this Workflow:

3. Depending on the type of workflow, using Package and deployment may also be possible:

Perhaps implementing Source Control would better handle edit/changes/versions when there are multiple developers working on a workflow:

* search for 'source control' to locate this section from the link above.
