Per-Transaction Flow Limits

Per-Transaction Flow Limits

Salesforce strictly enforces limits to ensure that any runaway flows don't monopolize shared resources in the multitenant environment. Per-transaction limits, which Apex enforces, govern flows. If an element causes the transaction to exceed governor limits, the system rolls back the entire transaction. The transaction rolls back even if the element has a defined fault connector path.

1 Autolaunched flows are part of the larger transaction that they were launched through and share that transaction’s limits. For example, flows launched from Apex or a process are executed with the Apex or process actions as part of the larger transaction. Flows with Screen elements can span multiple transactions. A new transaction begins each time the user clicks Next in a screen. Flows with Wait elements span multiple transactions. A transaction ends when a flow interview pauses for an event. When the flow interview resumes, a new transaction begins. Everything after the Wait element is executed as part of a batch transaction that includes other resumed interviews. The batch includes interviews executed by the same user ID, have the same execution time, and have the same flow version ID.
