Overview

A running workflow is pinned to the blueprint version that it started with. When you publish a new version of a blueprint, the new version only affects workflows created after the new version is published. Active workflows continue to follow the logic of the version they started under.

Version locking protects in-flight work. If you update a blueprint mid-process, you don't disrupt workflows that are already running.

How Version Locking Works

Running workflows
Continue using the blueprint version that was current when the workflow started, even if you publish a newer version later.
New workflows
Use the latest published version of the blueprint.
Linked workflows

When a parent workflow creates a child workflow, the child workflow locks to the version of the child blueprint that was current at that point. Later updates to the child blueprint don't affect the child workflow.
