Hi @damodar 

 

  • Ensure Flow's Run as has been set as System user. If not Change the Run As setting from User who initiates session to System User.
  • Verify the exact table you are trying to write to.Check the Access Controls (ACLs) for that table to see if it requires an elevated role .Refer : KB0870023 Flow Designer Create Task fails due to security rules
