    Hi,
     
    in new flow designer, there is plus button which helps to add actions something like below
     
     
    Could you try to hover after actions and see whether any + button appears or not ? or if it does not work - just try to re-open the flow
     
    Thanks & Regards,

    You are better off initialising all your variables in sequence instead of using parellel branches for each action:
     
    Initialize variable 1
    Initialize variable 2
    Initialize variable 3
    Initialize variable 4
    Initialize variable 5
    Initialize variable 6
    Initialize variable 7
     
    If not, you are going to have the challenge of joining each of these parallel branches back into the main branch.
     
     
    Once you're confident the flow is doing what it’s supposed to, you can go back and improve it.
