Hi @Snehal Madakatt ,
Follow this :
IF NOT !
simply use run script activity and update the script to trigger the event using gs.eventQueue('nameofevent', current, <parm1>, <parm2>);

You can try "Create Record" OOB Action on the Events table (sysevent) to generate a new Event in Flow Designer.
Please mark reply as Helpful/Correct, if applicable. Thanks!
