Setting up Flows
Once you have signed in to Flow, you can begin the process of setting up and managing your flows.
The Flows page is the first screen you will see once you have signed in to Flow.
- Click New Flow to create a new flow from a blank canvas. See Flows.
Setting up your flows
The left-hand menu provides quick access to the main pages you use for setting up and managing your flows.
| Icon | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Flows | View, edit, delete, and run any existing flows within the tenant, as well as create new flows. | |
| Pages | Manage existing page layouts and create new page layouts within your flows. Page layouts allow you to design and build the structure of pages that flow users will interact with. | |
| Values | Manage and create new values for use within your flows. Values are containers used to store data that can be numeric, text, dates, instances of a type (e.g., Type: Customer), or another value. | |
| Service Integrations | Manage and add new services to your tenant. Services connect your flows to external applications, like third-party APIs and data sources. They can also be used to extend the functionality of a flow, such as adding authorization restrictions and scheduling tasks. | |
| Types | Manage and create new types for use within your flows. Types are usually installed when a flow app is installed and define a collection of related data. They are extensible through type properties. | |
| Assets | Manage and administer the assets in your Assets library. Assets are static resources used in a flow app, such as images, presentations, spreadsheets, text files, stylesheets, or code snippets. |
