I am a Hubspot Admin in a company in the process of launching a new Business Unit. We have acquired the Business Units add-on, and I am now revising hundreds of workflows in order to see which will apply only to the existing BU and which will be required for both units. I've realised pretty quickly that the default Hubspot options for filtering/identifying etc are pretty weak (in the GUI at least, maybe via API is better? Currently you can filter by Object, Status, Creator and Team (which I think is to filter for workflows created by all users in a given Primary Team). You can also search by name and organise into multi-level folders. Some things that I think would be extremely useful are: 1. Being able to label workflows with one of more labels e.g "Owner rotation", "Internal notification", "Pipeline automation", "Task creation", "Email to contact". I think these would be much more useful than folders or trying to maintain any sort of naming convention 2. Being able to select a specific object property and seeing what workflows include that property in the "trigger" 3. Being able to select a specific object property and seeing what workflows modify/update that object property (I'm aware that for 2 and 3 you can go to the Setting tab and look for where the property is used, but this isn't enough)
