Custom Lightning components on Flow screens

Key Takeaway

A Screen Flow can use custom screen components when the standard ones aren't enough, but users can run that flow only in Lightning runtime.

Custom screen components let a Screen Flow show things the standard screen components can't. They come from AppExchange or from a developer. You then add them to a Screen element in Flow Builder and connect them to the flow.

What custom screen components can do

Each flow screen is made up of one or more screen components. Admins configure flow screens for flow users much like they configure record pages in Lightning App Builder.

When the standard screen components aren't enough, you can install screen components from AppExchange or have a developer build Lightning components, which can be Aura components or Lightning web components.

Custom screen components can do things like these:

  • Customize the navigation in your flow.
  • Display data in a table.
  • Show a branded header instead of the default flow header.
