Hi @manoj1 ,

You can use the flow API in your business rule, here's an example from the official docs

// Map inputs. For a flow with a record trigger, inputs are the record and table
  var inputs = {};
  inputs['current'] = current; // GlideRecord of table:  
  inputs['table_name'] = 'incident';

   // Execute the global flow called test_flow 
   sn_fd.FlowAPI.executeFlow('global.test_flow', inputs);

refer to this doc: https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/learn/learning-plans/tokyo/servicenow_application_develope...

You don't even need to write the code yourself, every flow generates the code snippet which you can leverage in your scripts.

Open the flow which you want to call and click on more action button (...), select create code snippet

It will generate a code which you can copy and use in your script, example:
