SharePoint 2013 – List of 2013 Workflows
As part of the resent project we needed to get a list of all 2013 Workflows. The problem is that 2013 Workflows are registered as subscriptions to Work Flow Manager, that is not technically a part of SharePoint 2013 farm but a stand a lone component. As such you need to initiate a Workflow Service Manager and enumerate all subscriptions for a particular SharePoint List. In addition there is no clear way to distinguish between the all versions of the workflow code.
There are a lot of scripts that will list 2010 Workflows but I was not able to find one for 2013 Workflows.
The following code enumerate throughout all Web Applications and generates the list of all 2013 Workflows in the SharePoint 2013 Farm. I do not have access to SharePoint 2010 farm but that script can be adapted to use in SharePoint 2010 as well. If you looking for a script to generate a list of all 2013 Workflows in the Farm see the following blog entry: SharePoint 2013 – List of 2010 Workflows
