This question has dogged me for years: "Why can't we specify a flow for a Record Producer"
Usually I'd say "Record Producers only create Tasks, you can define a flow after to isolate the task as a trigger".
It always felt icky. What am I going to do? "Short Description is/contains?"
I could CODE the flow API, but that's icky too.
One day I was analyzing RP usage via sc_item_produced_record and it dawned on me. These are the PERFECT triggers for Flow based on specific record producer.
- It creates at the exact same time as the task.
- It links to the producer.
- It links to the created task.
The 100% Reliable, NO CODE way to launch Flow from Record Producers
