Well, Flow buttons have been with us for a while, and have been gaining much popularity with our business users as they help them work smarter and faster. Until today, users could use buttons to trigger flows on demand, gather user inputs (such as text, or dropdown of values), Invite team members to run the same button, and more.
Link the button to the flow using URL parameters. In the text box, paste the flow URL. Now, when the flow is called, two values—AccountId and OpportunityId—are passed into the flow from the opportunity. The ID of the account that’s associated with the opportunity, AccountId, gets assigned to the flow variable {!AccountId}.
Is there a flow trigger button in SharePoint?
I followed the same Microsoft Docs yesterday to add a Flow trigger button in a SharePoint list only to find that it doesn’t work in web part – very disappointing. I need to display the list in a page alongside instructions of how to add an item, then send a summary of that item via email (Flow).
However, in Lightning Experience, the urls for auto-launched flows are not yet supported but some new capabilities are in beta as of Winter ’17 release. Attempting to invoke an auto-launched flow from URL, such as from a custom button, would give you the error “This page isn’t available in Salesforce Lightning Experience or Salesforce1.”
Share buttons with your peers or distribute them to the wider org such that these users can run them as well, thus helping them become more efficient, as well as enforcing the same processes across the organization.
