Salesforce provides several types of Flows: Screen Flows, Autolaunched Flows (including Record-Triggered, Schedule-Triggered, and Platform Event-Triggered). Screen Flows are interactive and require user input, ideal for guided data entry or multi-step wizards. Autolaunched Flows run in the background without user interaction, perfect for automating backend processes like updating records after a trigger or scheduled maintenance tasks. Record-Triggered Flows execute automatically when a record is created, updated, or deleted, making them powerful for real-time automation replacing many Process Builder use cases. Scheduled Flows run at specific times and intervals to handle batch or maintenance operations. Platform Event-Triggered Flows respond to platform events, enabling event-driven architecture.
