Flow Designer Continuously Processing After Clicking Save

I am trying to save a flow in Flow Designer.  However, after clicking the "Save" link the message "Processing" continuously persists.  Does anyone have any recommendations on how to fix this and save the flow?

I have tried...
... closing the flow tab and reopening the flow; editing the flow; and trying again,
... closing the browser tab for flow designer; reopening flow designer; reopening the flow; editing the flow; and trying again.

Thank you for the suggestions to debug the flow designer. I narrowed it down to a "Look Up Request Records" action.  Here are my findings:

  • If I changed the "Max Results" and click on "Save" the progress just sits and spins.
  • If I changed the "Max Results", click "Done",  and then click on "Save" the progress completes.

I just have to remember to click "Done".

Hi,

Strange, I have encountered this a few times however closing the tab and re-opening the flow usually resolves it.

Another couple of suggestions:

1. You could try copying the existing flow and saving the new one.

2. It makes me think there might be an action in the flow causing the issue. Make a copy, remove the actions one by one and see if it saves after removing a certain action.

Please let me know if this is helpful.
