    About this task

    You can only configure conversational settings for subflows that are marked as conversational compatible. Run a compatibility check to update the list of conversational compatible subflows. After you create or update a subflow, run a compatibility check to determine if you can make it conversational.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Process Automation > Workflow Studio.
    2. On the homepage, select Subflows.
    3. Go to the Conversational compatible tab and select Run compatibility check.
      Screen showing the conversational compatible tab on the subflows page.

      By default, the system only checks new subflows that were created since the last compatibility check. If you want to check all subflows, select Complete scan. You can use a complete scan to verify that updated subflows remain conversationally compatible.

      The system runs a compatibility check in the background. The more subflows there are to check, the longer the compatibility check takes.

    Result

    The system updates the list of conversational compatible subflows.

    What to do next

    To make a subflow conversational, configure its conversational settings. See Configure subflow conversational settings.
