Experts - How do I attach a Knowledge article automatically to an incident via event management without creating new subflow everytime for every alert rule.
Case scenario - we have many alert rules in place which create incidents getting assigned to different teams which take remediation/escalation steps.
I am aware that in subflow i can get a field and then via drop down(once the KB is in the list) choose the respective KB. But that would mean that I will have to create customised subflows for each alert rule! We don't prefer to do that as it will be a debt which we would have to maintain.
Any guidance / suggestions would be helpful!
Thank you.

Hi Ashi,
If you want to automate the linking of Incident to Knowledge Article, ServiceNow will need to know how to find the correct Knowledge Article (KBA). In your example, you've shown selecting a specific KBA from the list in the Flow actions. Is there a lookup table or some logic/query which can be used to find the correct KBA? If so, this logic could be applied to the Flow.
