You can import a workflow item's configuration to configure new workflow items or new workflow items on other Workflow Manager deployments. If the workflow item to which you want to import the configuration file contains jobs, they must be deleted before you can import a configuration file. To import a workflow configuration file from a newer version of Workflow Manager, upgrade your workflow item to the latest version.
