The Flow page includes various options and functionalities that will help you create the automation efficiently and according to your requirements.
Workflow Mode - Fast/Safe
By default, flows run in chronological order and are set to “Safe” mode. However, if your workflow is independent of other workflows or doesn’t require execution in a specific order, we recommend switching to “Fast” mode to ensure your workflow is initiated faster after being triggered.
Active/Inactive
You can deactivate flows that are no longer needed to prevent them from running. If necessary, you can always reactivate them by setting the flow back to “Active.”
Editor tab
The Editor tab is where you design your automation by selecting the appropriate trigger and defining the subsequent steps.
Runs tab
Each time the flow is activated, it counts as a single run, and all runs are listed under the Runs tab.
The runs are categorized as follows:
• Active Runs: Runs that were executed in full.
• Archived Runs: Runs that were stopped because the conditions defined at the beginning of the flow were not met and were subsequently archived.
Variables
Instead of using hard-coded data, you can define variables outside of the scripter step that can be easily adjusted upon need without having to adjust the script.
Once the variables are defined you can use them in various steps:
Secrets
Store keys securely for managing flows, widgets, and integrations with other platforms.
These keys can be used in the scripter step.
Drag and Resize Functionality
Resize the two sections of the page, editor and logs, to better focus on the content you need.
