            3. Select Record-Triggered Flow, and click Create.
            4. In the Configure Start window:
              1. In Object, enter Assigned Resource.
              2. In Trigger the Flow When, select A record is updated.
              3. In Condition Requirements, select All Conditions Are Met (AND).
              4. For Field, enter LocationStatus.

              6. For Value, enter EnRoute.
              7. In When to Run the Flow for Updated Records, select Only when a record is updated to meet the condition requirements.
              8. Click Done.
            5. Add a collection variable for the Messaging User object. This collection variable is populated with a list of messaging user record IDs based on your criteria. For example, you can configure your flow to send an automated message to a subset of messaging users based on channel and consent status.
            6. Add an action to the canvas. The New Action window opens.
            7. Select the Send Conversation Messages action and complete the fields.
              • In Messaging Users, select the collection variable that you created.
              • In Messaging Component, select your new messaging component. Make sure that the component status is Active on the Messaging Components page in Setup.
              • Select Any Time for when to send the message.
              • Select Yes, apply Messaging End User settings for end user’s consent preferences.
              • In Session Longevity, select Yes, End Session Immediately if the end user doesn’t need to respond in this messaging session.
              You can use values from earlier in a flow to set inputs for the message. If the action fields don’t contain valid inputs, the flow fails.
