๐ŸŒŠ YES, You CAN Launch a Flow from a Record Producer

New article articles in ServiceNow Community ยท Apr 01, 2025 ยท article

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
