Stage Resource

Stage Resource

Stages represent the steps in your flow. To keep users informed about which stage they’re in and how far they’ve progressed in a flow, you can create stage resources and use a progress indicator.

The standard progress indicator requires Lightning runtime.

Field Description
Label

A user-friendly label for the stage. Merge fields aren’t supported.

The label is what running users see in the standard progress indicator.

API Name An API name can include underscores and alphanumeric characters without spaces. It must begin with a letter and can’t end with an underscore. It also can’t have two consecutive underscores. The requirement for uniqueness applies only to elements within the current flow. Two elements can have the same API name, provided they're used in different flows.
Description Describes the stage and helps you differentiate this stage from other resources.
Order

Required. Determines how to sort this stage among the other stages in the flow. The order must be unique among all other stages in the flow.

Stages are shown in the standard progress indicator in the order specified for each stage resource.

Active by default Adds this stage to {!$Flow.ActiveStages} when a flow interview starts.
Tip
Tip When ordering your stages, leave gaps between the numbers in case you later want to add a stage between two other stages. For example, if you use 10, 20, and 30 as the order, you can insert a stage 15 without updating the original stages.
