Right out of the blocks, this was a great new component for your Flows. In reading through some of the comments, I saw a need to add a few enhancements to the basic component. Since there was an Edit mode being offered, I added a Cancel button so the user could reset the fields if they decided not to proceed with the changes.

I also added an option to support Flow navigation on both Record Save and on Cancel. To make it easier for Admins to understand and use this new component, I updated the attribute labels to be more descriptive as well as adding Help Text for each attribute.

The Developer Broadcast includes a section presented by Developer Evangelist Anny He that goes deep on creating a collection processor. Check it out!

You can now pass in a number of pixels (default is 320) in the attribute “style_width” to set the width of the control.

Problem preventing Get Layouts action from working in non-debug environments have been fixed.

“ObjectAndFieldName” attribute has been removed to simplify the interface, which still has an Object Name and a Field Name for use specifying picklist fields to use as choice inputs. (Note that you may need to remove the quick choice component from existing flows in order to install this version. We’ll try not to mess with the interface, moving forward.)
