Especially when creating large workflows, sometimes HubSpot or the browser crashes, necessitating multiple smaller workflows to accomoplish one goal. Sometimes, you have a great branch in a workflow that you’d like to use in another pre-existing workflow, so you have to rebuild it… **There _has to be_ a better way:** We need the ability to copy/clone branches of a workflow and then copy/paste them into pre-existing workflows. I could see this working like the Saved Sections part of the Email builder, possible. This will add great value to HubSpot. No longer will you be stuck re-inventing the wheel with workflows: - When you have good elements from one workflow that another one could benefit from, it will take seconds instead of minutes or hours. - When you have a gigantic workflow, you don’t have to fear an unexpected crash that wipes out the fourth branch of 20 filters: You simply just build one branch in a separate workflow and can copy it into a larger workflow. This flexibility will give everyone in the system the flexibility to build workflows using the building blocks from other workflows. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.hubspot.com/t/copy-clone-branches-across-workflows/48220)._
