About importing a workflow configuration file

You can import topic workflow configurations that were exported from any current or previous Topic schema version.

To import the topic workflow configuration, you must have the Manage Topic Workflow Configurations permission. During the import, you can name and describe the topic workflow configuration.

The imported topic workflow configuration contains the following information from the exported configuration:

  • Topic schema version
  • Export format version
  • Exported timestamp
  • Exported user information

Note:

Fields with a work team context are not included in the export and import of topic workflow configurations. Therefore, Topic Field Modified and Action Field Modified email notification rules that reference fields with a work team context are not included. Topic templates that contain populated topic or action fields with a work team context are also not included. If these exist in the original topic workflow configuration, they must be added to the imported topic workflow configuration.

Fields that reference users are not included in the export and import of topics, such as Topic Template, Topic Template Action, and Action Type assignments.
