Slack administration: Manage workflows in Slack

Org owners and admins on Enterprise Grid and workspace owners on Pro and Business+ can view and manage published workflows from the workflow dashboard. 

Note: Workspaces that downgrade to the free version of Slack can also access the published workflow dashboard in order to remove workflows created while on a paid subscription.
