The workflow edit feature allows you to fine-tune and adjust your workflows. This helps you make the necessary changes to your workflow setup to meet your changing needs without duplicating or archiving workflows.&nbsp;This article will walk you through the steps to edit workflows and provide key information about this feature.

## Key things to know about editing workflows

- **Eligible workflows:** You can modify all types of workflows, including [automation](https://help.circle.so/p/workflows/workflow-setup/set-up-a-custom-automation-workflow), [bulk action](https://help.circle.so/p/workflows/workflow-setup/set-up-a-custom-bulk-action-workflow), and [scheduled](https://help.circle.so/p/workflows/workflow-setup/schedule-a-bulk-action-workflow).

- **Changes to workflow setup:** &nbsp;You can update the entry rule and actions, add new actions, or delete existing ones.

- **Time delay actions** : Currently, you can’t modify the existing&nbsp; **time delay action** &nbsp;when editing the workflow. If you need to change the delay setup,&nbsp;remove the action and add a new one.&nbsp;As with all changes, these updates will only apply to members for whom workflow hasn't run yet.

## Edit workflows

To get started with editing a workflow, follow these steps:

1. Click&nbsp; **Workflows** &nbsp;in the left sidebar, then select&nbsp; **Workflows**.

2. Locate the workflow you would like to edit.

3. Click the workflow title or click&nbsp; **More actions** &nbsp;**(three dots)**&nbsp;next to the workflow and select&nbsp; **View**.

4. On the workflow overview page, click **Edit** in the top-right corner. ﻿﻿

You'll now be taken to the workflow editor. In the editor, you can make the following changes:

- **Edit event (for automation workflows)**: In an active automation workflow, you can modify the&nbsp; **entry rule card** &nbsp;by selecting a different event or event entity using the dropdown menus.

- **Edit audience rules (for bulk action workflows)**: You can adjust the&nbsp; **audience rules** &nbsp;within the entry rule card for bulk action workflows, including scheduled ones. Once you click&nbsp; **Continue** &nbsp;on the entry rule card, the updated rules will be applied in the next run.

- **Edit actions** : You can modify the existing action cards by changing the action entity (such as a member tag for Add member tag action) or selecting a new action using the dropdown menus. Click&nbsp; **Continue** &nbsp;on the action card to confirm and apply the change immediately.

- **Add new actions:** &nbsp;To add new actions, click the ➕ icon above or below any existing action cards. After setting up an action, click&nbsp; **Continue** &nbsp;to confirm and apply the change immediately.

- **Delete actions:** &nbsp;To remove an action, click the&nbsp; **More actions** &nbsp;**(three dots)**&nbsp;icon on the action card, then select&nbsp; **Delete Action**.

> ❗ **Important:** Since the changes will take effect immediately and apply to members or non-members for whom the workflow has yet to run, we recommend reviewing your edits carefully before clicking continue to avoid unintended changes, especially with an active automation workflow or a bulk action workflow that's currently running.

Once you've made all the changes, click **Done**. You are now all set with changes.
