What functionality is supported by Flow Designer?

The correct answer is C. Call a subflow from a flow. Flow Designer supports modularity by allowing users to call subflows from within a main flow, promoting reusability and organization of automation logic.

Why each option

Flow Designer supports modularity by allowing users to call subflows from within a main flow, promoting reusability and organization of automation logic.

AFlows can be "Run as" security_admin.

Flows cannot typically be run as `security_admin` directly for general operations; they usually run as the system user or the user who initiated them, or with specific impersonation that doesn't usually include `security_admin`.

BFlows can trigger off a record being deleted.

Flows primarily trigger on record creation or update, but generally do not trigger directly on a record being deleted due to technical complexities where the record may no longer exist to query.

CCall a subflow from a flow.Correct

Flow Designer allows for the creation of subflows, which are reusable sequences of actions, and these subflows can be called and executed from within a larger main flow, promoting modularity and efficiency in automation.

DThe role flow_operator can create and edit flows.

The `flow_operator` role is for monitoring and troubleshooting flows, not for creating and editing them; the `flow_designer` role is required for creation and editing.
