            Choose a Lookup Option for a Flow Screen

            Salesforce provides three ways for users to search for and select records on flow screens. Generally, use the Lookup component when you want users to search an unfiltered list of records. Use the Choice Lookup component when you want users to search a filtered list of records or static choices. Use a lookup record field when you want users to have the option to create a record from the lookup field. This table describes the differences between the three options.
