Good evening everyone.

I have a flow A that executes a certain action only if another flow B is running on its own.

On its own meaning that flow B is already running when flow A starts, id est flow B is not executed with an action from flow A.

The matter is that in flow A I need to get a value from a variable in flow B.

Do I necessarily have to config that variable as a global one or is there another way to retrieve its value from flow A?

Thank you.

As long as I know, the only other way to pass variables from one flow into other is that, if you execute one flow with Execute Flow action, you can check Wait called flows to finish, which enables you to check Return variables from the calling flow. So that way, if you call a flow, all variables generated in it can be used in the first flow.

So it depends on how your flows work, if you can take advantage of this feature or not. Maybe you can change them a little to make them work if this doesn't fit as they are.

Thank you, but that's not my use case unfortunately.
