Creating Notification Action in Flow Designer

[Mahesh_Krishnan]

Hello:

I understand that a custom action needs to be created for using the Notification step within a flow.  I am trying to configure the customer action but it does not seem to be intuitive to me.  The Notification field is mandatory but the table field is read-only.  How and where should I pass the record and table value? Do I have to create input variables for them?

I really appreciate someone walking me through this because the doc site is not very helpful.

Appreciate your help in advance!

what did you have for the output?

I don't have any Output configured. But I do have the notification step, to call trigger the notification I wanted.

I am glad I am not the only person that struggled with this.  The trick is to create the proper Action Input. 

Use Reference.[record type] (and not Records.[record type] as I was trying).

This is the correct solution.
