What happens when i click remove on immediate workflow action?

I removed a workflow action then wanted to recreate it. It will not let me  thought and throws an error that says the Unique Name already exists. What happens when I click remove? Can I bring it back? Can I delete the Unique name completely and recreate it? New so might need beginner instructions.Thank you.User-added image

Hi Jason,

May I request you please confirm whether if you have deleted the workflow rule or just deactivated it?

If they are deleted then there is no way getting them back.If it's deactivated then you can reuse them back.

The recycle bin holds your record data, and not metadata which is what a workflow rule and corresponding actions are.

The "Workflow Name" can be the same, but the "Workflow Unique Name" has to be distinct.  When this happens to me, I usually append a "1" after the Workflow Unique Name.

Please let us know if this information helps.

Thanks,
Nagendra
