10 Game-Changing Flow Solutions

Lightning Flow makes it possible to build seamless experiences for your customers and employees with as little code as possible. By applying the power of low-code, drag-and-drop functionality to customer engagement, you can automate the complex logic of your business process in Salesforce – even if you need to interact with external systems. Two builders are included in Lightning Flow. Process Builder, which lets you automate simple “if-this-then-that automations”, and Flow Builder, which lets you perform more complex logic and visually guide users through an interaction.

Don’t start with a blank canvas

Together, Process Builder and Flow Builder provide a lot of power at every admin’s fingertips. But we know it can be hard to know where to start, especially when faced with that blank canvas and all those options. With Flow solutions, you can get started right away, even if you are not familiar with Flow Builder yourself.

We offer two types of Flow solutions.

• Flow actions are standalone elements that you can add to any flow.
• Flow templates are pre-built flows that you can customize to match your company’s needs. Unlike when you install a flow via a managed package, you can see the guts of the flow, make a copy, change whatever you need, then put it to work in your org. And the flow template developer can push upgrades to the template in your org.

By installing a Flow solution, you get subject-matter expertise and industry best practice baked in. Why build automation from scratch, if industry leaders have already done the work?
