Clone as custom

POST

/api/v1/workflows/{id}/clone

Code sample: cURL

curl -X POST 'https://api.justcrawl.io/api/v1/workflows/a47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479/clone' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer $JUSTCRAWL_API_KEY'

• Production

Clone a workflow as a non-smart custom draft. The clone is independent — it has its own ID, version history, and routing. Use this when you want to start from a smart workflow’s DAG but edit it freely (smart workflows themselves are read-only and reject PUT). The clone starts in draft status with no route; POST /api/v1/workflows/{id}/publish to make it live.

Parameters

Path Parameters

id

required

string format: uuid

The workflow to clone, by its stable logical id — the workflowId field of a workflow object, NOT its id field. id is the per-version row key and 404s here.

Responses

201

The newly created clone.

Media typeapplication/json

object

id

Primary key of this specific VERSION row. Changes every time the workflow is edited, and is not accepted by any endpoint. Useful only for correlating a response with the exact version it came from — pass workflowId, not this, to /api/v1/workflows/{id}.

string format: uuid

workflowId

Stable logical identifier for the workflow, constant across every version. THIS is the value every /api/v1/workflows/{id} route expects (get, update, delete, clone, publish, unpublish, routing, versions) and the value jobs and schedules reference.
