Showing Users Their Progress in a Screen Flow

Showing Users Their Progress in a Screen Flow

Keep your users informed about which stage they’re in and how far they’ve progressed in a screen flow. Create stages to designate steps in the flow, and use a progress indicator to show all the stages and highlight the stage that the user is in.

Path-type progress indicator

To set up flow stages and a progress indicator, complete these steps.

  • Planning the Stages of Your Flow
    Progress indictors show your flow stages to the running user. Before you start adding stages to your flow, plan for all the possible stages that you want your running users to see in a progress indicator.
  • Create Flow Stages
    After you plan the stages for each path of your flow, configure the stages so that they show up in a progress indicator on your flow’s screen elements that your users can see.
  • Set Up a Progress Indicator for Your Flow
    Progress indicators show users where they are in flows. Use the standard progress indicator for a quick setup, or build a custom component for a tailored experience. To get started, turn on the progress indicator for a screen flow.
  • Control Which Stages Show in Your Progress Indicator
    After you set up your flow's progress indicator, configure how stages appear as users move through the flow. Show the same stages throughout, add or remove stages based on the path the flow takes, or update the highlighted current stage between screens.
  • Show Screen Flow Stages in a Progress Indicator Example
    This example creates a custom progress indicator stage that guides users through a multi-step process. By creating clear stages and assigning them to screen elements, you can enhance user experience and ensure that users understand their progress and next steps.
  • Flow Stage and Standard Progress Indicator Considerations
    Before you add stages to your flow and use the standard progress indicator, keep these considerations in mind.
