Description
In Salesforce, a Platform Event-Triggered Flow is a type of flow that is triggered by a platform event, which is a custom message that can be sent between different parts of the Salesforce platform. This type of flow allows you to automate processes and actions based on specific events, such as the creation or update of a record, or the receipt of a custom message from another system.
To create a Platform Event-Triggered Flow, you can use the Flow Builder tool in Salesforce. When you create a new flow, you can select the "Platform Event" option as the flow's starting point. You can then choose the platform event that will trigger the flow, along with any other necessary inputs or parameters.
Once the Platform Event-Triggered Flow is created and activated, it will run whenever the specified platform event is received. You can monitor the status and results of the flow using the Flow Run Details page in Salesforce.
Platform Event-Triggered Flows are a powerful tool for integrating different parts of the Salesforce platform and automating complex business processes. By using this feature, you can ensure that key actions are taken in response to specific events, and that information is shared seamlessly between different systems and teams.
