Validating your App

After you have created the flows in your app, you must validate the app before you push it to the cloud.

To validate your app, click Validate on the app details page. This validates each flow and activity. If a flow or activity has an error, it displays an error or warning icon on the top-right corner of the flow or activity.

Important Considerations

  • When you open any flow for the first time or switch to a flow for the first time, the validation is auto-triggered for that instance only. After that, for any change in the canvas, you must do a manual validation check by clicking Validate.

  • If a flow is already a part of open tabs and no unsaved changes exist for that flow, while switching to that flow from any other flow, validation is not triggered.
  • After a flow's validation is completed, the validation details are cached and remains present till you move out of the flow to the Flow List page or you refresh the page.

  • If you add or change triggers and activities in a flow or any change in canvas, no validation is triggered. To observe the latest validation, click Validate.

  • If a new tab is opened, validation is triggered.

    If a sub-flow is appended, validation is triggered when the subflow is clicked. If you call a subflow already present on the Flows tab, validation is not triggered.
