About this course

Flow Builder is Salesforce's primary no-code automation tool, replacing Workflow Rules and Process Builder as the standard way admins automate business processes on the platform.

Create screen flows for guided user data input experiences
Build scheduled flows for time-based automation
Debug and troubleshoot Flow errors
Understand when to use each flow type for different automation scenarios
