Action limit By default, flows can have no more than 50 actions. Does this include actions used in a subflow used by a flow

[Jim J1]

The recommended Action limit By default, flows can have no more than 50 actions.

Is this per Flow, subflow or is it per Flow including any Subflows consumed by the Flow?

Hi,

as per official documentation is for flow OR subflow:

Maximum actions per flow. sn_flow_designer.max_actions

Specify the maximum number of actions a flow or subflow can contain. Flow Designer prevents you from adding further actions after the maximum number of actions has been reached. Consider the performance impact raising the maximum number of actions may have. For example, running more actions may conflict with the default transaction quota rule that prevents flows from running longer than an hour.

Thank you very much

Hi Alberto,

Do you know if there are any prominent repercussions to increasing the default value above 50?

Hi,

its 50 per flow or subflow. Which means once a subflow is created then in that you can have max of another 50 actions excluding the actions that are there in flow.

If I have 3 subflows in a flow, is that 50 for the flow and 50 each for each subflow?

Thanks,
Jack
