    Have a look at the TargetUpdateAsyncOperation class; there's an example of how to cancel a workflow here.

    The most straightforward way to programatically "disable" the triggering of a workflow, would be to unpublish it:

    const int WorkflowStatusDraft = 1;
const int WorkflowStatusPublished = 2;

public void PublishWorkflow(Guid workflowId)
{
  SetStateWorkflowRequest publishRequest = new SetStateWorkflowRequest();
  publishRequest.EntityId = workflowId;
  publishRequest.WorkflowState = WorkflowState.Published;
  publishRequest.WorkflowStatus = WorkflowStatusPublished;

  this.CrmService.Execute(publishRequest);
}

public void UnpublishWorkflow(Guid workflowId)
{
  SetStateWorkflowRequest unpublishRequest = new SetStateWorkflowRequest();
  unpublishRequest.EntityId = workflowId;
  unpublishRequest.WorkflowState = WorkflowState.Draft;
  unpublishRequest.WorkflowStatus = WorkflowStatusDraft;

  this.CrmService.Execute(unpublishRequest);
}

    I need to unpublish all workflows prior to importing them using the sdk.  This is to allow them to be updated during our release process.  Do you know how I can retrieve a list of all published workflows in the sdk?  I'll use your unpublish/publish routines above to loop through them.

    Thanks,

    Tim

    ConditionExpression condition = new ConditionExpression("statuscode", ConditionOperator.Equal, 2);  // 2 == Published, 1 == Draft

FilterExpression filter = new FilterExpression();
filter.AddCondition(condition);

QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression(EntityName.workflow.ToString());
query.Criteria = filter;
query.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(new string[] { "name" });

RetrieveMultipleRequest req = new RetrieveMultipleRequest();
req.Query = query;
req.ReturnDynamicEntities = false;

RetrieveMultipleResponse resp = (RetrieveMultipleResponse)crmService.Execute(req);

foreach (workflow wf in resp.BusinessEntityCollection.BusinessEntities)
{
	System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print("{0}: {1}", wf.workflowid.Value, wf.name);
}

    Hi Pat

    If I want to cancel running instances of workflow, can I pass 31 as workflow status to cancel running instances of workflow ?
