I am experimenting with flow designer and trying to replicate an existing workflow triggered off a catalog request item. Is there a way in Flow Designer to trigger events the same way there is in Workflow?
For example I have a Create Event activity in my existing workflow that references an event in the Event Registration (sysevent_register) table. The event triggers a standard email notification.
In Flow Designer i'd like to trigger the same events so I don't have to manually populate the Send Email action each time.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You can try "Create Record" OOB Action on the Events table (sysevent) to generate a new Event in Flow Designer.

You can use create record action targeting sysevent table, but note that your flow designer should be in the "global" scope. Else, you don't get to find sysevent table in the dropdown.

Hi, I've a Quebec instance and it is still available. Just check the scope. Balaji Jagannathan above mentions the flow needs to be in global otherwise it will not be available.
