How to setAbortAction in a custom action in a flow

[GassanHirra]

I want to abort the insertion of a record if some condition is met in the flow,

I did add the flow logic and everything and i made a custom action and added a script into it, but i can't seem to figure out how to setAbortAction since current.setAbortAction(true); returns this error 
Error: Cannot convert null to an object.,Detail: Cannot convert null to an object.
Any help would be much appreciated, Thanks 🙂

Hi,

current.setAbortAction(true) works in before business rule; not sure whether it would work in flow

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

@GassanHirra have you tried @Ankur Bawiskar's solution, is it working for your action in the flow?

Thank you. the link above applies when using either client-side script or server-side business rule to abort an update. However this doesn't answer OP's original question, if those same script would work in a flow.
