I’ve written an article on the Flow Launcher from the App Exchange and included a few use cases showing how to use Datatable Row Actions to launch pop-up screen flows to do things like edit records or add new records to a Datatable. Get the complete story here.

Have you ever wanted to have your screen flows automatically navigate to the next screen without needing the user to click a button? This new component is designed to be used on a Flow Screen to automatically navigate to the previous or next screen. The navigation is controlled by making the component conditionally visible so […]

T Also, the number of characters required in the Search Term box before the search […]
