Flow Trigger Explorer for record-triggered flows

Key Takeaway

Use Flow Trigger Explorer to see and change the run order of record-triggered flows for one object and trigger, without opening each flow one by one.

Flow Trigger Explorer is a Setup tool that shows, in one place, every record-triggered flow that runs for a chosen object when a record is created, updated, or deleted. An app builder can see the order those flows run in, change that order, and manage flow versions there.

What Flow Trigger Explorer shows

You pick an object and a trigger (Created, Updated, or Deleted), and Flow Trigger Explorer lists all record-triggered flows that run for that combination. It is more visual and interactive than the standard Flows list view.

Flow Trigger Explorer groups flows by when they run:

  • Before the record is saved (before-save flows)
  • After the record is saved (after-save flows)
  • Asynchronously (the Run Asynchronously group)
  • On a scheduled path

Within each group, flows appear in the order they run, so you can see at a glance which before-save and after-save flows run for the same object and trigger. The Run Asynchronously group is different: its flows are not guaranteed to run in the listed order, because of how asynchronous processing works.

Flow Trigger Explorer doesn't show record-triggered flows created with a flow template, so that is the likely cause when an app builder can't find such a flow there.
