I created a custom action in flow designer to execute the following script -

But it is showing error as fd_data not defined. Here coned_variable_set is the name of the workflow

Hi,

 

The Flow Action does not have access to the fd_data object directly.

 

Instead you will have to pass this object via the "inputs" of the Flow Action, so in your flow action, create an input as below:

Then in your Flow Action script you can access the input like this:

Then, to actually pass the data to the input, go back to your Flow, from which you are calling your action, and pass the fd_data object using the picker:

Like I want to access the variables from a variable set, in that case how can I add the input
