Description
Record-Triggered Flow is an automation tool in Salesforce that allows you to automate processes by defining criteria for when to execute an action. One of the features of Record-Triggered Flow is Fast Field Updates.
Fast Field Updates allow you to update fields on the record that triggered the flow to run. This feature runs before the record is saved to the database, which makes it a high-performance flow. Fast Field Updates are especially useful when you need to update a small set of fields on a record and want to do it quickly.
For example, you can use Fast Field Updates in a flow that updates the status of an opportunity when a certain stage is reached. You can set the flow to update the status field on the opportunity record without having to wait for the record to be saved to the database.
Fast Field Updates also offer several benefits, such as reduced complexity, faster performance, and lower resource consumption. However, it is important to note that Fast Field Updates have some limitations, such as the inability to update related records or trigger additional flows.
Overall, Fast Field Updates in Record-Triggered Flow provide a powerful and efficient way to update fields on the record that triggered the flow to run, enabling you to automate your business processes with greater speed and ease.
