How to change owner of oozie workflow in hue (CDH 5.3.2)

Hi All,

I've 50 workflows in hue with owner as 'user1', now i want to change workflow Owner to a different user say 'user2'.

I can re import the workflow but it will take very long time to export from user1 and import into user2.Is there any process i can use to change workflow owner in hue database (hue is configured with sqlite database)???

Thanks

There is no real easy way for now. The best is probably to use the Hue
shell.

I put a quick example that worked for me in the bottom of:

Do not forget to backup the DB in case!
