The recent addition of safe mode might be helpful, but I think WeWeb should add 2 features that would be even more useful: the ability to disable an individual workflow and the ability to disable a task within a workflow.
Bubble offers the ability to disable a workflow. Xano offers a similar ability to hide steps in its function stack.
Disabling individual workflows and tasks would offer more granular approach to debugging.
A pattern i am using is adding a filter condition as first action of a workflow, and just set the condition to false. Helpful to easily desactivate a workflow
Totally agree, I would love to just have a disable button on an individual item in a workflow, or to just turn the entire workflow off through a binary option. Have wasted countless hours around this.
Thanks for the quick reaction. That works for workflows and is just a little less convenient than a toggle in the UI. I think for many users, a toggle in the UI would be easier to understand.
I’m not aware of a similar approach for disabling tasks. Is there one?
If there isn’t a similar approach and you had to modify the UI to disable a task, consistency would suggest that using this same approach would be good for workflows.
Add my vote to drag and drop in workflows. There’s drag and drop in the editor. Does WeWeb want workflows to be the forgotten child forced to settle for second best? I don’t think so.
