screen, and then returns to the screen with this component.
| Option |
Description |
|
Use values from when the user last visited this screen

values to reflect changes made on previous screens. |
|
Refresh inputs to incorporate changes elsewhere in the flow

The component updates the user-specified values to reflect changes made on
previous screens.

resume the flow, the flow retains user-specified values only in Checkbox, Checkbox
Group, Currency, Long Text Area, Multi-Select Picklist, Number, Password,
Picklist, Radio Buttons, and Text components.

Considerations
- Use the Radio Button Group component type for up to 7 choices. For more choices, use the
Picklist or Radio Buttons component type.
- The Radio Button Group component doesn’t support choices where Display text input is
selected because the input text isn’t visible at run time.
