Integrated workflow visualization and editing is provided using a visual graphic diagramming tool and a web application platform tool to create a workflow. A visual representation of a workflow is created using the visual graphic diagramming tool. A declarative markup language file representing the workflow is provided to a web application platform tool for further modification of the workflow. The workflow is opened in the web application platform tool and desired parameters in the workflow are set. Visualization data from the graphic diagramming tool and the set parameters are bundled in a single declarative markup language file formatted for reading by both the visual graphic diagramming tool and the web application platform tool to allow manipulations and parameterization of the workflow in both the visual graphic diagramming tool and the web application platform tool.
