I have a catalog item [sc_cat_item] and a variable [item_option_new] in it. I want to use that variable in a flow. How can I pass that variable to that flow?

You can use "Get Catalog Variables" flow action and access the variables submitted and get their values.

Get Catalog Variables action

@thebananek May i know what's your exact requirement?

I have catalog item and variable which is reference to other custom table.

On the form user selects record from custom table.

I want to pass that record to a flow. Then I want to use that record to run a subflow and then underpin the catalog item by the flow.
