In this lesson, you’ll learn the two strategies for orchestrating flows in Parabola — triggering a flow from within another flow, and using a dedicated orchestrator — so you can control exactly when and in what order your workflows run.

Building challenge

Chain your Sales by Category flow to a downstream flow so the next process is triggered automatically when it finishes.
1

Create your downstream flow

Click the link below to create a pre-built downstream flow that your starter flow will trigger.Create your downstream flow
2

Add a Run another flow step to your initial sales by category reporting flow

Back in your initial sales by category reporting flow, press S to open the search bar, search for Run another flow, and drag it onto the canvas. Connect it to the output of your Send to Parabola Table step. Configure it to trigger 301: Downstream flow.
3

Run your initial sales by category reporting flow and confirm the downstream flow is triggered

Click Run flow in the top right. Open your downstream flow in a separate browser tab and watch it start running after the table is updated.
