Editing a Published Flow
A published flow can be edited if you have created it or if you have privileges to do so.
The TDV Web UI is intended to be used as a self-service tool by analysts to create, modify and publish their own data flows. Within the Web UI, there is no provision to share resources between users. However, users with read/modify all resources rights (typically, an Administrator) or users that have been granted read access to someone else's flows, can view/edit resources owned by other users. You may need to republish the flow during such scenarios as listed below:.
When a published flow owned by a different user is renamed/modified by you, then it is important to know that the flow is not automatically copied to your private folder or your private publish folder.

Additional Notes
| • | When a published flow owned by a different user is renamed by you, then it is important to know that when that flow is deleted by the original owner, it will delete the flow from your published folder as well. |
| • | When a non-published flow owned by a different user is renamed/modified by you, then it is important to know that the flow is modified only in the original owner’s private folder. |
