Flow Notification

A Flow Notification carries the message a flow's in-app notification action posted about its own run. It is the general-purpose voice of the action: whatever your flow reports lands here.

At a glance:

Property Value
Icon
Color Neutral, following your theme.
Type label FLOW
Unread dot Next to the date while the notification is unread; gone once it is read.
Title What the run did, when the trigger has an outcome to name: 12 anomalies archived, Ticket DATAQ-42 created, 3 tickets updated. A scheduled or manual run has no such outcome, so its title is the flow's name. Composed from the event rather than the message, so rewording the template never leaves a stale headline.
Message Your own template text, written by the flow's author, rendered with its formatting and shown without its trailing link line (the notification itself is the link). Any other link in the text opens in a new tab without marking the notification as read. See Message Variables for the tokens it can carry.

What Triggers It

A flow running an in-app notification action. This type is the fallback for flow activity that is not already about a more specific subject: a flow that raises an anomaly produces an Anomaly notification instead, and one reporting a finished operation produces an Operation notification.

What It Shows

The headline names the outcome when the trigger has one, such as how many anomalies were archived or which ticket was created. When it does not, as for a scheduled or manual run, the headline is the flow's name, read live from the flow itself, so renaming it never leaves a stale headline in your panel. The message is whatever the flow's author wrote in the action's template, with its Message Variables resolved and its Markdown rendered, so headings, bold text, lists, and links appear as the author laid them out. It is shown without the trailing link line, since the notification itself is the link.
