Does the outcomes of a decision table count towards the flow action limits?

[Robin26]

I'm building a long flow with a large decision table (22 outcomes). Each outcome will have 2-3 actions against them. 

If the outcomes themselves don't count towards the limit, the flow should be within the 50 limit. But when I'm half way thru adding the actions, it's reporting exceeding the limit now. 

Does anyone have experience with this? 

And what would happen if I exceed the limit? Will the 51st and onwards actions not trigger?

Hi @Robin26 
If you exceed the limit, the system will not allow you to save or activate the flow.
As a best practice, create a subflow and incorporate the decision table outcomes within it. Then, use this subflow in the parent flow.

Also, we have a system property which controls the  maximum number of actions allowed on a flow. Please chcek the below doc to understand better.

@Robin26 

the outcomes won't be counted but only the actions you add for each outcome are counted.

If it hits 50 then it will throw an error.

You can increase the count by using this property "sn_flow_designer.max_actions" but it will lead to performance impact.

Thanks for your help @Ankur Bawiskar. 

I ended up with more than 50 rows in the flow, of which 22 are outcomes. Tried to limit the actions by using subflows. It still got the error message, but I was able to save and run the flow successfully. 

I didn't want to change the default setting of 50.
