Using Entity Context Viewer on Flows

The Entity Context Viewer feature available on the Flow Diagram allows you to:

  • View the entities that are used throughout the working flow (step messages, input mapping, set variables, integrations).
  • View the list of entity fields and the ones that are used on the working flow.
  • Highlight the flow steps where specific entity and fields are used.
  • Copy the entity fields label to further use it in messages, set variable, input mapping or integrations.
  • Add or delete entity fields as best suits your needs.

To access the Entity Context Viewer, on the Flow Diagram, click the Context Viewer icon (). The Context Viewer appears at the right.

By default, the Context Viewer lists the entities other than system entities and their fields that are used throughout the working flow.
