SharePoint 2013 Workflow Retirement Starting in 2024

SharePoint 2013 workflow will be turned off for new SharePoint Online tenants effective Apr. 2, 2024, in advance of its complete retirement on Apr. 2, 2026. Microsoft recommends that customers move to Power Automate or a third-party workflow offering for sites that depend on the SharePoint 2013 feature, and customers should ensure that any third-party offering considered does not itself rely upon SharePoint 2013 workflow. Customers should also disable the creation of new SharePoint 2013 workflows in a tenant via PowerShell. This retirement does not affect on-premises workflows in SharePoint Server 2016 or 2019, which will remain supported until those servers leave support in July 2026. Support for workflows in SharePoint Server SE will continue through the SharePoint Workflow Manager for an undetermined period. Customers who are unsure of the status of workflows in their environments can download and run a SharePoint 2013 workflow assessment tool from GitHub at https://pnp.github.io/pnpassessment/workflow/assess.html. Microsoft also offers migration guidance at https://aka.ms/sp-workflows-guidance. Support announcements for SharePoint 2013 workflow are updated at https://aka.ms/sp-workflows-2013support.
