It seems we cannot copy/paste workflow actions between a normal page and api workflows page (and vice versa).

Note: This is painful since we have build a lot of stuff twice. For instance api calls cannot be debugged from api workflow tab. We have to build it (and every action that references it) on a page first, and then rebuild everything in the api workflow section once we test that it’s fully working. Ability to copy/paste would help.

Yes, it’s a limitation, because API and pages can have different actions types. Unfortunately not an easy fix.

Is it possible to do it atleast for custom workflows ? They seem to be independent
