Workflow Instances and Workflows in Parallel

This topic discusses multiple instances of workflows and workflows running in parallel.

Instances of a Specific Workflow

Only one instance of each workflow can be run at any time. If a workflow's Start method is executed while the workflow is already running, that Start method will have no effect:

  • A new instance of that workflow won't start running when the Start method is executed.

  • A new instance of that workflow won't start running when the existing instance ends.

Workflows in Parallel

Multiple workflows can run at the same time. Each workflow will progress independently of other running workflows.
