Hi @AleemaAM ,

The 'run a child flow' action will catch the response from child flow.

I see, but in the Parent Flow how can we extract the response from the flow?

Hi @AleemaAM ,

The child flow can response to parent flow with action 'Response to powerapps/flow' action.

Subsequent actions will be executed after the response is finished of child flow.

If you don't want to wait for a response, you can create a parallel branch.

Best Regards,
