Heya there, I am working on changing the behaviour of some workflows in a production PipeDream. There are three workflows, apparently being triggered in chain sequentially (flow 1 → flow 2 → flow 3). I have copied all the 3 flows as tests and set them up so that they interact with my Salesforce test environment rather than with the production one.
The problem is, the first test workflow is being triggered correctly via URL, but the second and third are not being called - instead, the production workflow are being triggered. So there must be some cross-reference in the first workflow or something I am missing in the configuration, that still points to the prod ones, but I could not find anything. Anyone can help me find it out?
If you have two versions of your workflow (one prod and one test), then you just need to make sure to call the right HTTP endpoint to trigger the test workflow.
It sounds like there might be residual references in your test workflows that still point to the production workflows. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue: 1. Make a Trivial Change and Redeploy: Make a small change to each of your test workflows and Deploy them again. This can help ensure that the workflows are properly updated and any cached references are refreshed. 2. Verify Workflow Steps: Double-check all steps within your test workflows to ensure they are not referencing any URLs, IDs, or identifiers from the production workflows. Pay special attention to: - Trigger URLs: Ensure the URLs used to trigger the test workflows point to the test environment. - API Endpoints: If your workflows interact with external APIs (like Salesforce), verify that they are configured to use the test environment credentials and endpoints. - Environment Variables: Check that any environment variables or configuration settings are correctly set for the test environment. 3. Check for Hardcoded References: Look through your workflow code and configuration for any hardcoded references to production workflows. Update these to point to your test workflows as needed. 4. Search the Community and GitHub Repo: If you’re still experiencing issues after the above steps, try searching the community or the pipedream GitHub repo to see if others have encountered and resolved similar problems. 5. Reach Out for Support: If the problem persists after trying these steps, please reach out in the community for further assistance. The support team and community members can provide more tailored help to resolve your workflow configuration issues. For more detailed troubleshooting steps, you can refer to the Pipedream Documentation.
It sounds like there might be residual references to your production workflows within your test workflows. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue: 1. Verify Trigger URLs: - Check Workflow Triggers: Ensure that the triggers in your Test Workflow 1 are pointing to the correct URLs of Test Workflow 2 and Test Workflow 3. It’s possible that the URLs are still referencing the production workflows. - Update URLs if Necessary: If you find that the test workflows are referencing production URLs, update them to point to the test versions. You can find each workflow’s ID by following the instructions in Where do I find my workflow’s ID? and use it to construct the correct trigger URLs. 2. Make a Trivial Change and Redeploy: - Sometimes, making a small change (like adding a comment) to your test workflows and redeploying them can help ensure that all configurations are updated correctly. After redeploying, test the workflows again to see if the issue persists. 3. Check for Hardcoded References: - Review Workflow Code: Inspect the code of Test Workflow 1 to ensure there are no hardcoded URLs or identifiers that still point to the production workflows. - Environment Variables: If you’re using environment variables or configuration files, make sure they are set to reference the test environments instead of production. 4. Monitor Workflow Logs: - Access Logs: Review the logs of your test workflows to identify where the calls are being made. This can help pinpoint if and where the production workflows are being inadvertently triggered. - Debugging: Use logging statements within your workflows to trace the execution flow and identify any unexpected behavior. 5. Consult the Community or Support: - If you’ve gone through the above steps and are still encountering issues, consider reaching out to the Pipedream community for additional support. You can visit Support - Pipedream for more assistance. 6. Ensure Separate Environments: - Distinct Workflows: Make sure that your test workflows are entirely separate from your production workflows, with unique identifiers and configurations to prevent any overlap. - Permissions and Access: Verify that the test workflows have the appropriate permissions and access to interact with your Salesforce test environment. By carefully reviewing and updating the configurations of your test workflows, you should be able to ensure that they interact correctly with each other and your Salesforce test environment without affecting the production workflows. If you continue to experience issues after trying these steps, please reach out to Pipedream Support for more personalized assistance.
