I created a UDA in our UAT env. exported and imported it into production. when exported and imported the workflow that uses this UDA from one env. to the other. everything moved nicely except the actions that used that UDA. When I click on the UDA on the workflow to see why it is not configured, I get the error below. The UDA is there in the UDA actions and it is published. 

Can you please help as this UDA is used tons of times on that workflow in UAT and having to go back and reconfigure all in PROD will be a big hassle.

Any hints are appreciated.

Thanks!

Ok. never mind. I figured it out happy.png

The first time the UDA was used, the workflow was imported into the environment before the UDA which caused this issue.

Although the existing one was exactly the same name, but for some reason the system couldn't find it. Here is what I did to resolved it:

1. Renamed the existing UDA and republished. Force it to update the workflows using it.

2. Reimported the UDA (with the old name) and published it.

3. Removed the workflow and re-imported it.

A note to self: "always import and prepare all UDA's first before moving your workflow"
