I wanted to create an Object type in Flow1 but also use the same Object in Flow2, is this possible?

    Hey @Aleema 

    You can do two things:

    • Use the concept of parent-child flows. From the parent child flow you will pass the object to child flow.
    • You can use the trigger call when an http request is received. In flow 2 use the above trigger. Add another action in it. Save it. You will get a url from it. Copy it. Go to Flow 1. In that use HTTP action. Add the Uri you copied from flow 2. After that in the body, add the object you created.

    Can the parent flow be in one app and the child flow be in another app?

    @Aleema 

    I am not sure what you are referring to an app.

    But to create parent and child flows, you will have to make them in a same solution.

    For example, I created a Power App and I have flow1 running in that App.

    1. Can I use flow1 in another Power App?

    2. Am I able to have Flow1 in App1 trigger Flow2 in App2?

    If the apps are in the same solution, then you can, otherwise not.
