Add Flows to a Feature

After adding a feature, you can add a flow to it to define the data transfers between connectors in your integration. There are two ways to add a flow to an integration feature: create a new flow from scratch or select an existing shared flow that has already been created for your workspace. In most situations, you will create a new flow.

Your use account must have Integration Author permissions to complete this task.

Create a New Flow

Follow these steps to create a new flow for a feature.

  1. Select integration builder icon Integration Builder and open the appropriate integration.
  2. Select the Features icon Features tab and open the feature you want to add a flow to.
  3. In the Flows section, select Add Flow.
  4. Select Create New and populate the following fields:
    1. Enter a Name for the flow.
    2. Select Next. If you already have configurations set up for your integration, choose from the list.
    3. Select Next.
  5. Review and select Save.
  6. Navigate to your workspace, select the flows icon Flows tab, and select the flow to start building it or make additional edits.
    For instructons, see Creating a Flow.
    Note: Flows default to Active on Sync, which means the flow automatically switches to Active when the feature is set to Active. Toggle this option off if you do not want the flow to automatically activate.

Add an Existing Flow

Follow these steps to add an existing flow to a feature.

The flow must have a Main version and not be marked Private.

  1. Select integration builder icon Integration Builder and open the appropriate integration.
  2. Select the Features icon Features tab and open the feature you want to add a flow to.
  3. In the Flows section, select Add Flow.
  4. Select Add Existing.
    A list displays all shared flows already created for your workspace. These flows are visible to other workspaces and integrations.
    Note: For existing flows with configurations, you must map these configurations to the integration when adding the flow.
  5. Choose one or more shared flows from the list.
  6. Select Next.
    The Configuration Mapping page opens.
  7. If you selected a flow with a configuration, choose an integration configuration from the dropdown list or enter a title in the New config title field and select the plus icon to add a new integration configuration.
    Note: If you selected multiple flows that require integration mapping, you must map the configurations in another window. For more information, see Map Flow Configurations After Adding Multiple Flows to the Integration.
  8. Select Next.
    The Review page opens.
  9. Select Save.

    The flow is added to the integration feature, and its configurations are mapped.

If you have set up an integration and added at least one feature with at least one service and flow, you can sync the integration definition to your development workspace for testing. Alternatively, you can continue setting up components such as Integration Configurations.
