How existing flows will run If I changed them?

Posted on by trance_addict14 22

Hello,

 

I have a small question. I created a flow with approvals. Everything is working fine. If I change the flow (Add a new connector) and save it then would the existing runs will be affected?

 

For example a flow is still running on old settings and I have made the changes and saved it. Now what will happen?

    @trance_addict14  of couse, because the flow in hold answer needs to send the data to the older conection and if don't exist this is an error.

    Existing instances of the flow, things that have already triggered, will continue to run using the old code.  New instances will run using the updated code.
