If you need more functionality, for example, to install a custom screen component from an external library, have a developer [build one for you](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/components_config_for_flow_screens_intro.htm). - **[Action Button Screen Input Component](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_ref_elements_screencmp_action_button.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)** Use the Action Button component so the running user can trigger a screen action with the click of a button on a screen. The screen action runs an active autolaunched flow, and the results of the autolaunched flow can be shown on the same screen as the button. Using this component means that you need fewer screens so users can complete screen flows more quickly. - **[Address Screen Input Component](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.flow_ref_elements_screencmp_address.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)** Simplify gathering address information by adding the Address component to a flow screen. The Address screen component shows a complete address form that’s customized to your settings.
