The subject of the task is “Call new lead by next week.” | | Send an email to an account owner anytime a contact is added to their account. | When a record is created (a record-triggered flow) | Sends an email | Create a flow that sends an email notification to the account owner any time a new contact is added to the account. | | When an account owner is changed, update the owner of all related opportunities and contacts. | When a record is updated (a record-triggered flow) | Updates multiple related records | Create a flow that starts when an account owner is changed and automatically updates all an account’s opportunities and contacts. | | If the Status field of an applicant record has been left blank, update the field to New. | When a record is created or updated (a record-triggered flow) | Uses a custom object and a custom field, updates a record that meets the criteria | Create a flow that starts when an applicant record is created. If the applicant Status field is empty, set it to New. | | Every day, find contacts that have a missing phone number and update their description with a reminder to get the phone number at the next meeting. | On a specified day and time (a schedule-triggered flow) | Updates records that meet the criteria | Create a flow that runs every day at 8:00 AM and finds contacts with a blank Phone Number field and updates the description field to say "Get the contact's phone number at the next meeting." | | Each Wednesday, find opportunities that haven’t been updated in the last 30 days and send an email to their owners to remind them to update their opportunities. | On a specified day and time (a schedule-triggered flow) | Sends an email to a group of recipients | Create a flow that runs every Wednesday at 10:00 AM. The flow finds all opportunities that were created within the last 14 days and updates the Opportunity Next Step field to Assign Executive Sponsor. | | Collect information in a form and use that information to create a lead. | When a user clicks a button on a screen (a screen flow) | Creates a record by using information from a form | Create a flow that has a screen and collects a first name, last name, and email address. Then, the flow creates a lead with the information collected on the screen. | | Display a screen that shows support agents their open cases and allows them to upload a file to all those cases. | When a user clicks a button on a screen (a screen flow) | Shows information on a screen and allows user interaction | Create a screen flow that looks up and displays all open cases and allows a support agent to select a case and upload an image file as a file attachment. | | Create a corresponding case in Salesforce when a user creates a ticket in Zendesk. | When a new ticket is created in Zendesk. | The flow runs on a 5-minute schedule and checks Zendesk for new tickets using the my\_zendeskconnection connector. For each new Zendesk ticket, the flow creates a case in Salesforce. Zendesk Description maps to the Salesforce Case Description, and Zendesk Ticket ID maps to the Salesforce custom field Cust\_Zendesk\_Ticket\_Id. | When a user creates a ticket in Zendesk, create a case in Salesforce. Set the polling frequency for the trigger to 5 minutes. Map the Zendesk Description field to the Salesforce Case description field, and update the Salesforce custom field Cust\_Zendesk\_Ticket\_Id with the Zendesk ticket ID. Use the my\_zendeskconnection for the Zendesk connector. | #### See Also - [Best Practices for Drafting Flows with Agentforce (Beta)](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_build_best_practices_and_considerations_for_einstein_for_flow.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Get the best results when using Agentforce to build draft flows.") - [Draft a Flow with Agentforce (Beta)](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_build_build_a_flow_with_einstein.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Build your flow faster and easier by letting Agentforce help you get started.") - [Considerations for Agentforce-Drafted Flows and Formulas (Beta)](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.automate_flow_build_einstein_considerations.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Supported functionality, usage requirements, and important limitations when using Agentforce to draft flows and formulas.") - [_Video_: Get to Know Einstein for Flow](https://salesforce.vidyard.com/watch/Wfhwp7gReQTATYZwdEF8Gk) - [_Salesforce Help_: About Einstein Generative AI](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ai.generative_ai_about.htm&type=5&language=en_US)
