When only the flow ID is available, locate the specific Okta Workflow without knowing the specific folder location by appending the identifier to the Workflows URL. This method supports both the legacy flow identifier format and the Universal Identifier (ULID) format introduced in Version 2024.07.0.

• Okta Identity Engine (OIE)
• Okta Classic Engine
• Okta Workflows
• Flow ID / Universal Identifier (ULID)

How is an Okta Workflow located using only the flow ID?

This method works with both flow identifier formats:

• Option 1: The updated format using the Universal Identifier (ULID) (used starting in Version 2024.07.0): /app/flows/<ULID>
• Option 2: URLs using the previous URL path for flows: /app/folders/<foldernumber>/flows/<flownumber>

How is a flow located using the Universal Identifier (ULID)?

Locate the flow using the ULID by navigating to the Workflows Console, appending the ULID path to the URL.

1. Navigate to the Workflows Console.
2. Append /app/flows/<ULID> to the Workflows URL and press Enter.
   • Example: https://<domainName>.workflows.okta.com/app/flows/01J07KE99Y0NSDRKWS8NB3STM4
3. View the loaded flow and observe the folder name in the top left corner, which will redirect to the correct folder when clicked on
   

How is a flow located using the legacy flow number?

Locate the flow using the legacy flow number by navigating to the Workflows Console, appending the legacy folder and flow path to the URL.

1. Navigate to the Workflows Console.
2. Append /app/folders/my/flows/<flowidhere> to the Workflows URL and press Enter.
   • Example: https://<domainName>.workflows.okta.com/app/folders/my/flows/662735
3. Okta redirects the URL to the ULID format. View the loaded flow and select the folder name in the top left corner to redirect to the correct folder as needed.
