Editing a workspace from the Automator

I am wondering if I should be able to launch the Data Prep Studio interface from the Automator if I go to the Server Library-> Workspaces and put the Workspace I previously uploaded to the Automator into edit mode. I want to make some changes to that Workspace.

I thought going into edit mode here would launch Data Prep Studio but that is not happening.

I've already linked a lot of objects in my Visual Process to this Workspace URL so I don't want to redo them all by creating a new URL.

What are my options for editing a Workspace, can I do it without creating a new URL?

Thank you kindly, Clara

The only real changes you can make to a workspace inside of Automator is to replace/update any of your load plan input paths.

If you need to modify a workspace that has been uploaded to Automator's server library, follow these steps:

Select the workspace from the server library.
Click "Download" and save it to a location on your computer.
Edit the downloaded workspace using Data Prep Studio.
Save your modified workspace.
Open Automator and browse to the server library and select workspaces.
Choose the workspace you want to update.
Click on the "Browse" button.
With the Explorer dialog box that opens, browse to your modified workspace file and click "Open".
Click the "Save" button at the bottom of the workspace.

This will allow any visual process that rely on this workspace to use the updated copy.
