@CV1

You need to write a post-clone script that will execute after the cloning process. This script will call your flow.

(function() {
// Trigger the flow after the clone
var flow = new FlowAPI();
var flowId = '<Flow ID>'; // Replace with the actual flow sys_id
flow.startFlow(flowId);
})();

And to set theme you will have to create user preference.

Hope this will help you.

Hi @CV1

You can trigger your flow through FlowAPI. For your flow, you can get the trigger script created by navigating to your flow and clicking on Create Code Snippet.

Thanks and Regards

@CV1 the glide.ui.polaris.theme system property stores the sys_id of the currently active theme. You can leverage this property to preserve and reapply the theme during a clone.
