Export and Import Workflows
Autom8 AI allows you to export workflows as JSON files and import them back into your workspace. This makes it easy to share, back up, or move workflows between environments.
File Format
Workflows are saved in JSON format. You can export entire workflows or copy specific sections, and later re-import them as needed.
Important Note on Credentials
Exported JSON files include credential names and IDs:
IDs are not sensitive
Credential names may contain sensitive information (e.g. email addresses or key names)
Before sharing a workflow, review the JSON to remove or anonymize:
Credential names
API headers (especially from imported cURL requests)
Ways to Export and Import
Copy & Paste
Select one or more nodes in the editor (use drag to multi-select)
Press Ctrl/Cmd + C to copy
In another workflow, press Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste
Great for quickly duplicating or transferring parts of a workflow.

Download: Export the current workflow as a JSON file
Import from URL: Paste a direct link to a JSON file (e.g. from GitHub)
Import from File: Upload a local JSON file into Autom8 AI
