Create a new flow and start automating!

Create a flow from scratch

Open the flow builder

Click the + next to the flow selection dropdown.

A new "empty" flow is started - containing one "read feature" and one "write feature" node.

Your flow will be assigned a (we think) fun name that is a combination of a random adjective and animal. Enjoy!

Or, rename the flow to something more descriptive.

Add more nodes and connect them with wires. Changes to flows are saved automatically.

Add the flow to a geometry from the properties palette.

Create a flow from a template

With a geometry selected, open the flow builder.

A menu of flow templates is displayed.

Click a template to apply it to the geometry and open it in the flow builder canvas.

Your flow will be assigned the template flow's name. If another flow with that name exists, a number will be appended.

Or, rename the flow to something more descriptive.

Add more nodes and connect them with wires. Changes to flows are saved automatically.
