Use 24Files with Flows
In the following section, we describe a number of use cases on how you can leverage Flows in combination with 24Files. For each of these use cases, there is an example Flow that is shipped with the 24Files package.
You can copy these examples and modify them according to your needs.
Record-triggered Flows in Salesforce that interface with external systems are best executed in asynchronous mode (using an asynchronous path in a record-triggered flow), as sending data to an external API may be slow or experience latency.
Asynchronous paths allow the main transaction (saving the record) to finish first, running the heavy lifting in the background immediately afterward.
As such, when you build a record-triggered Flow using one of 24Files Apex Actions, you must run it asynchronously.
