# Deleting or Disabling a Workflow

## Disabling a Workflow

It is possible to disable a workflow regardless of its publication status. Disabling means that the workflow is no longer available in the **Make a Request** dashboard and cannot be used by end users. However, the disabled workflow can still be edited in the Workflow Builder.

To disable a workflow:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Navigate to the Workflow Builder Module

In the Workflow Builder module, locate the workflow you want to disable.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Select the workflow record

Clicking the workflow record opens the side panel with workflow details.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Open the workflow editing view

Click the **edit** or **view** icon next to any available workflow version. This opens the workflow in edit mode.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Deactivate the **Active** Button

To disable the workflow, toggle the **Active** button.

The workflow disappears from the Make a Request dashboard.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.security.gallagher.com/knowledge-hub/accessnow-user-guide/workflow-creation/creating-and-managing-workflows/workflow-management/deleting-or-disabling-a-workflow.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
