Where are Flow Action Inputs stored

Hi there,

 

Any idea in which table Flow Action Input values are stored?

 

For example:

So where are these values stored?

 

And yes I already saw https://www.servicenow.com/community/workflow-automation-forum/where-the-flow-designer-s-action-inpu... which does not help.

 

 

Kind regards,

I thought it used to be visible, sys_variable_value or something, though somehow this changed. It's now stored in sys_hub_action_instance_v2 in the values field. Unfortunately though... that field is somehow encoded or whatever, at least not human readable 🙄

 

Kind regards,

Hello @Mark Roethof 

 

In the flow itself in the hamburger icon on the top right corner, you have executions. Did you check that ? Will that answer your question ? 

 

Kindly mark my answer as helpful and accept solution if it helped you in anyway. This will help me be recognized for the efforts and also move this questions from unsolved to solved bucket.

Hi there,

 

Thank you for the response, although that was not the question. The question is, where are the values for the Flow Actions inputs stored? The question is not about Flow executions.

 

Kind regards,

Hello @Mark Roethof 

 

Executions also store inputs but yes that's isn't precisely what you ask.  However, please refer the below article - 

 

https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0761115

 

 

However, I think they are like dynamic temporary parameters. I don't think they are like stored in a proper table. 

 

Hope it helps !

Hi Mark, 

 

Flow Action input variables are parameters that we use to pass the value from the flow or sub flow to actions, These parameters are not stored in any separate tables. 

 

If this helps, please mark is Correct.

Thanks,
