Synchronize Process Definitions

Learn to synchronize process definitions between FlowWright environments

Last published at: November 11th, 2026

The synchronization feature lets users compare and update artifacts created in the source system with those in a FlowWright target system. The user can synchronize data types, steps, business objects, event definitions, event handlers, event subscribers, menus, dashboards, organization charts, decision tables, themes, users, configuration settings, connections, triggers, process definitions, form definitions, databases, etc.  

Navigate to the “Status > Synchronize” menu option. To synchronize, select the source and target FlowWright connections, then click Connect to confirm a successful connection. If the connection doesn't work, you can go to the “Integration > Connections” menu option to verify the source and target connection strings.  

 

The "Connect HTTP" feature tests HTTP connections based on the configuration. In the first attempt, it connects using HTTP, then uses HTTPS if there's no response.  

 

Navigate to the Items - Process - Process Definitions menu option.

 

Search to select the Process Definition. Data/items displayed in “Green” indicate new data/items to synchronize, and “Purple” indicates updates/changes to the data/items. 

  • Click on the “All” button to select all items (mark all checkboxes)
  • Click on “Clear” to unselect the items (unmark checkboxes)
  • Click on “Additions Only.” Only the items that are not present in the target database will be selected for synchronization
  • Click on “Changes Only.” The updated items in the source database will be selected for synchronization
  • Click on the “Synchronization” button. The selected items will be synchronized with the target database.

 

Click the “Synchronize” button to sync this definition with the target environment. 

 

A confirmation message appears in the top-right corner. To view the changes, navigate to the target FW environment and select the Process Definition. This activity is recorded in the Audit Log. Before synchronizing the selected items, the system creates a snapshot of the target database.
