Upload Component for Flows​

A new upload-only component has been added, which allows admins to add the Google Drive upload functionality to the screen flows (or use it in custom LWC components), effectively enabling the use of the upload in flows, the lightning app builder, quick actions, and communities.

One of the applicable scenarios is a multi-step flow for the case creation process.

  1. In the first step, we create a screen flow.
