Description of the flow designer's validation rules
There are some rules that must be followed to successfully save a flow. If one of these rules are not followed after pressing the Apply or Save button, you will get a validation error notification and changes won’t be saved.
Validation rules:
- The flow name must be unique in the app.
- Each step name must be unique in the flow.
Startstep and at least oneEndstep are mandatory.Startstep should be unique.- Inputs need to pass their own validation rules.
- Outputs need to pass their own validation rules.
- There can not be steps without any connection except for the
Context stepand expanded version ofsubflows. - Outside of group containers: every step except for
StartandEndsteps should be source and target of at least one connection. - Inside of group containers: there can only be one step that is no target of a connection. This will be the initial step in the flow execution within the group.
