Using a Lightning Web Component in Salesforce Flows

No one can deny the fact that Salesforce Flows has been getting all the love from Salesforce.

As a part of that Salesforce made sure that a Lightning Web Component can be embedded in a Lightning Flow. The only thing that we need to watch out for is the target in the XML file.

We can source an LWC into a Salesforce Flow by using the below target.

<targets>
   <target>lightning__FlowScreen</target>
</targets>
<targetConfigs> 
    <targetConfig targets=”lightning__FlowScreen”>
		<property name="NewRecord" type="String"/> 
		<property name="Message" type="String"/> 
    <targetConfig>
</targetConfigs>
