Number of actions in Flow designer is limited and I am unable to add any action

Hello Team,

I have one flow for a service request. In that I am unable to add more actions as the maximum number of actions allowed by servicenow[Default value : 50] has been exhausted. I have changed the default value to higher and deactivated and activated the flow to pickup the newly entered limit. But it is not working. Only 3 steps I need to add but the flow is not allowing. It is an urgent requirement.Kindly respond immediately if you have any idea.

Hi @Thirupathamma ,

 

Create a subflow and add your final logic instead of actions so that you can minimize the number of actions.

Hi Thirupathamma,

Firstly, did you update the system property sn_flow_designer.max_actions?

Otherwise, you can create a subflow with a subset of your actions, and call the subflow in your main flow.

This will accommodate all your steps, and will also improve the modularity of your flow, allowing you to reuse subflow components elsewhere.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Hi @Thirupathamma 

 

As per latest update, moving action in to Sub flow is a good option. Please move action to sub flow.
