How to initiate Flow Designer Flow on Catalog Item submission?

[carlav]

We are trying to switch over to Flow Designer usage from Workflow Editor. With Workflow Editor, we would create somewhat simple workflows that will Set Values on RITM, created SCTASKs on the RITM, and maybe send notification - these are added into the Catalog Item field of Workflow so that it is kicked off on submission of that Catalog Item.

How do we use a Flow in Flow Designer to get it to initiate Flow each time a specific Catalog Item is submitted?

Hi carlav,

Unless there is more to your question, you just remove the workflow name from that field and populate the Flow field.  If there's more to your ask, please let me know.

Are you saying there should be a Flow field to populate? I only see Workflow and Execution Plan fields

I found it in Catalog Builder.

QUESTION - When building a Flow, is there a limit to the number of Actions/activity that can be in 1 Flow?

[SnowReece]

By default, flows can have no more than 50 actions. To change the default behavior, increase the value of the sn_flow_designer.max_actions system property. However, consider the performance impact that a large flow may have on your instance.
