Flow Screens Redesign
We redesigned the Flow screens. Please consult the sections below to see itemised lists of changes of the affected screens.
The way you build, validate and submit Flows hasn’t changed.
Changes on the Editing screen:
- A step’s details, and the Flow’s settings, now open in a panel to the right of the diagram instead of below it. Close the panel to see the whole diagram.
- Each panel is a column of sections, such as General, Attributes mapping and Match keys, instead of tabs. Each section has a description.
- You pick an Entity from a list that you can search, grouped by namespace, instead of from a drop-down list.
- After you click Validate, problems open in the Validation panel, grouped by step. Show opens the step that a problem belongs to.
- The status chip in the header shows the version’s status, such as Active or Draft, and the Undo and Redo buttons show their names.
- A Script step’s outputs use the same field grid as the Data Structure Definition screen.
- In a Script step, Show full screen gives the script the whole window. Click Exit full screen, or press Esc, to return.
- Edits still save automatically, 5 seconds after your last change. Submit now saves any pending edits and then submits the Flow, instead of staying disabled until the draft is saved.
- Undo now reverses one action at a time: a burst of typing in a field, or deleting a step together with its links.
Changes on the View screen:
- The grid has new Input Entity and Target Entities columns.
- Deleting a Flow now asks you to confirm. Fynapse archives a deleted Flow and removes it from the grid.
