Trigger flow from a workflow in scope

[Nora3]

Hi!

I was wondering if it's possible to trigger a flow from a workflow (the flow and the workflow is in the same scope as I am working in). How can I run a flow in the workflow?

Thanks.

From your published/activated flow, click the three dots top right and choose the "Copy Snippet" option. Copy the Server side code.

In Workflow, drag a new "Run Script" action to your Workflow and past the copied code in the Script box.

If helpful or correct please indicate so

Hi,

Thank you for answering. The option "code snippet" is not visible for me. I tried to elevate roles to security admin but I still couldn't see this choice.

I can see this option in my New York Instance. Might be this is a new addition in this release. There is no need of any elevate roles that need to be done to make this visible. 

Its just that your needs to be a active one.
