Creating Navigation Lines between Steps in a Flow

A navigation line starts from one of a step’s response ports and connects to another step or to a result step.

• Every Success or Custom response in a flow must have a navigation line either to a subsequent step or to a result step.
• It is optional to connect Failure responses to a subsequent step or result step. For more information about result steps, see Adding Result Steps to a Flow.

The response ports that appear in a step are in accordance with the responses that were defined for the operation or flow that the step instantiates. For example, if a step instantiates a subflow with three responses: success, failure, and a custom response, the step will have three corresponding response ports.

If a flow already has a navigation line from a step's response port, and that response is deleted from the flow or operation instantiated in the step, in the flow the response port is grayed-out and navigation line appears as a dotted gray line.

1. On each step that you want to connect to the next step (or to a result step), click the icon that represents one of the response ports, and drag a line to the destination step for that response.

   

2. Repeat the process for the other response icons on the step.

3. To add, move, and remove a vertex from the navigation line, follow the below steps:

   1. To add or move a vertex on the navigation line, click the navigation line and drag it to the desired position.
      A small vertex with x icon appears on the navigation line as shown below.
      
      
   2. To delete a vertex from the navigation line, hover over the navigation line with the vertex and click x icon.
      The vertex is removed and the original navigation line without a vertex is displayed.
      
      

4. To delete a navigation line, hover over the navigation line and click the x that appears on the line.
