# Import to an Existing Workflow API

<Badge icon="arrow-left" color="gray">[Back to API List](/ai-for-process/apis/apis)</Badge>

This API enables users to import configurations, datasets, or updates into an existing workflow, allowing modifications without creating a new one. It ensures seamless integration by updating the workflow with the provided workflow data, flow data, and environment variables files.

After triggering the import, the response returns a `dockStatusId`. Use this ID to call the [Get Dock Status API](/ai-for-process/apis/apis-list/get-dock-status) and verify the status of the workflow import process.
