Copying an existing process flow version to draft

Introduction

Any updates to a deployed process flow must be made in a draft version, and then this version must be deployed.

Sometimes it can be useful to copy the contents of an existing deployed or inactive process flow version to the draft version, as a starting point for editing. For example, you might have lost track of changes that have been made to the current draft and want to ensure it's in step with the deployed version before making changes. Or, you might want to revert to an older way of working, and so copy an inactive version to the current draft.

When an existing deployed or inactive version is copied to draft, the version number associated with the draft stays the same, but the content is replaced.
