SharePoint 2010 – Move SharePoint Designer Workflow from a library to another library

Problem: want to re-associate the SharePoint Designer Workflow to another document library.

Solution: using SharePoint Designer to edit “workflowfilename”.xoml.wfconfig.xml .

<association ListID="..." TaskListID="..." ...></association>

How to find out the ListID?

  • Go to the List/Document Library
  • List Setting/Document Library Setting
  • You will to get the List ID from the Internet Browser URL
  • URL looks like “http://URL/listedit.aspx?List=%7B532E2F14%2DF3B5%2D4BE9%2DA14A%2DE0DBD10E0935%7D”
  • Go to “http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/”
  • Paste the %7B532E2F14%2DF3B5%2D4BE9%2DA14A%2DE0DBD10E0935%7D
  • the website will decode to “{532E2F14-F3B5-4BE9-A14A-E0DBD10E0935}”

Use that DECODED List ID to update the workflow XML file.

NOTE: if you having problem when you try to publish the workflow using SharePoint Designer,
you may delete the webcache at “C:\Users\loginnames\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebsiteCache”
