Flow Orchestration Resources

Required Editions
In Flow Builder, the Manager tab shows the resources that are available in the orchestration.
You can create some resources by clicking New Resource. The system providers certain resources, such as global constants and global variables. Other resources are created when you add an element to an orchestration. For example, when you add a Decision element, a resource for each decision outcome is created.
