I've tried to find the ID number for a given Business Process / Workflow via both the Workflow Designer and the Admin Console, but can't find it in either place. Does anyone know where / how it might be found?

Question
How do I find the business process id number?
Answer
Workflow ID's can be found in the dbo.workflow table of your Workflow database.
Ah, I'll have to talk to our DBA about it, then. It seems odd that this information isn't available as part of the workflow definition in the Admin Console, at least.
Not the answer I was hoping for, per se, but an answer. Thanks Blake!
Workflow IDs are only available in the UI from the Audit History node in the WF Admin Console. If you don't mind me asking, why is it relevant?
Fair question, Miruna! We need the ID as a workaround to add a given, specific Business Process to the tool bar in the Web Client (see related question). I have since learned, through the answer to the linked question, that I can add specific processes if I first "favorite" them. Still, how to access the ID is useful to know if we need to build out the profile string, or edit the settings for a group of people (e.g. if a new, separate version of the BP is created).
