Jason Figge: Question - How do I get a list of workflows and then a specific workflow definition using the zeebe client?

Josh Wulf: You cannot.

Jason Figge: Hmm. So what would be the correct way to achieve this? Using the Zeebe API directly?

Josh Wulf: The workit TypeScript client has an affordance for this, using ElasticSearch - but there is no query API surface on the gRPC API for the client to interrogate.

Jason Figge: Ah, I see.

Jason Figge: thank you

korthout: If you need this information you can configure and consume an exporter see https://docs.zeebe.io/basics/exporters.html|https://docs.zeebe.io/basics/exporters.html. Information about deployed workflows is recorded in Deployment:Created events for each partition
