Workflow Template Editor #43197
Description
Feature request
Is your feature request related to a problem?
hen a new user goes to the workflows page for the very first time, it would be great to have examples instead of the empty state illustrations:
Also users may want to create "golden templates" for their team.
Describe the solution you'd like
We want to create a workflow template editor that allows users to create workflow templates. These templates can then be suggested to users when they open the workflow page.
At first we want only posthog-internals to be able to define templates for all users. Eventually we could allow users to create templates for their org/team and even let them publish community templates for everyone.
Creating Templates:
- "Create Template" button on the page
- Opens a view similar to workflow creation
- Click together workflow as you would when creating a workflow
- (TODO: How exactly should variables be handled?)
Using Templates:
- Pressing "New Workflow" button opens a popup asking if you how you want to start
- Offers several template options, starting with "Empty" (current default when you click "New Workflow")
- After selecting a template it gets applied and you can edit your workflow as normal
Additional context
The first templates we provide could be the ones suggested here:

Stretch goals
- "Create Template from Workflow" button on existing workflows
- Show "See all templates" button that opens a larger template view with filters etc. on "New Workflow" popup
