I'm working on a very simple screen flow and I need your help...

I have a contract object that has a tutor field, which refers to a contact record. On my contact page, I want my screen flow to include a field that sums up the number of open contracts where that contact is registered as a tutor.

enter image description here

Right now, the field should show 1, but it shows all the open contracts across the db. The field that says "Nombre d'apprenants suivis actuellement: 353,00" enter image description here

In the get record, I'm trying to filter the contract where the id in the tutor field matches the id of the current contact record I'm viewing (like mentioned here), to no avail.

I have tried matching the contact id with the one in the field (like mentioned here), to no avail

Can you help me figure it out? Thank you!

  • Can you please help me on the filter condition you used in get records because I am not familiar with the language you are using in the flow. I just need translation for that get records filter. How are you passing current recordId to the flow?

  • @SaiPraveenKakkirala of course, the "select_tuteur_c" is a lookup field, the operator is "equals" and the value is "$Flow.CurrentRecord" like here help.salesforce.com/s/…. Thanks

I guess the issue is in getrecord element in the flow. In the place of $Flow.CurrentRecord can you try creating a variable of name recordId of type Text and check Available for Input as shown below.

Now edit your lightning page under your flow and check the checkbox pass recordId into this variable give the input as shown below.

You can refer the example for the same.

  • Should the input variable not be called recordId (lower case first letter)? Also, this variable can be the whole record or the ID only as desired.

  • @PhilW, Yes it can be recordId. We are just passing the Id from the record as the variable is of type Text and we just need Id of the Record I guess. So added it as Text.

  • The documentation says to use recordId. Are you saying this is case insensitive?

  • In this scenario We can use anything because we are passing the variable to the flow from the lightning page as shown above. I tried using both and both worked as expected.
