Flow charts

In the Flow Chart subtab, you can view a a high-level visual representation of a flow. Each icon represents an event, an action, or a function.

Because any flow must be triggered by a trigger such as an application event, an API Endpoint, a scheduled event, or a child flow, the first icon in a chart always represents a designated event that monitors for a change in your cloud application. Each subsequent icon represents one specific step in a flow.

Example

This flow chart illustrates a scheduled flow that will perform the following actions:

• Read table rows that were updated after a specified date

• Construct a JSON object

• Perform an API action against a GitHub repository

• Reduce (pluck) the body that was returned by the Custom API Action card based on a specified key

• Use the Map function card to convert the output values from the List Pluck card into a new list by running a helper flow

• Return values to the caller of the flow

• Update a row in a table
