Download a human-readable workflow JSON from Analyze

The Analyze page can download a cleaned, human-readable JSON representation of the uploaded workflow. It is designed for review, documentation, and scoping conversations. It is not the original workflow JSON and it is not an importable package.

Quick answer
In shortUse the Analyze page JSON export when architects or workflow owners need a cleaned review artifact instead of the original source file.
Most likely causeThe JSON export gives reviewers a normalized view of the analyzed workflow: workflow summary, trigger, connectors, readable steps, migration status, detected targets, diagnostics, limit-risk details, and checklist items.
What to do nextCompare the affected step in Analyze, apply the fix, and then re-export or re-run analysis.

What the JSON export is for

The JSON export gives reviewers a normalized view of the analyzed workflow: workflow summary, trigger, connectors, readable steps, migration status, detected targets, diagnostics, limit-risk details, and checklist items.

Use it when a PDF is too high-level and the original source package is too noisy for a business or architecture review.

  • Architecture review before export.
  • Customer discussion of supported, partial, and unsupported steps.
  • Power Automate limit-risk explanation.
  • Documentation for UAT planning and remediation decisions.

What it is not

The human-readable JSON is not the original workflow export, not Power Automate package JSON, and not a file that should be imported into Nintex or Power Platform.

It intentionally removes implementation noise and reshapes the data for human readers. Treat it as a report artifact, not a source of truth for package generation.

How to download it

  1. Upload a workflow and let Analyze finish.
  2. Open the Analyze page for the workflow.
  3. Select Download JSON near the CSV and PDF download buttons.
  4. Share the JSON with reviewers who need step-level detail without opening the original workflow designer.
For customer delivery, pair the JSON with the PDF report. The PDF is easier for stakeholders; the JSON is better for technical review.
