Article summary

Whatfix enables you to copy steps from one Flow to another, which reduces the need to repeatedly create the same steps. The functionality helps when processes or tasks in your application have a few similar steps. You can copy and add Flow steps at any point in a Flow. For more information on Flows and how to create them, see What are Flows? and Create a Flow

Info:
In cases where Flows have branching scenarios, copying Flow steps also copies the branch in the Flows. You may have to delete a branch from a Flow for such instances if you do not require the branch any longer.
