Verified steps

  1. In Flow Builder, create a new Record-Triggered Flow and select the triggering object (e.g., Opportunity)
  2. Set the trigger to fire when a record is created or updated; define entry conditions using the Condition Requirements section to restrict the flow to relevant records (e.g., Stage equals Closed Won)
  3. Add an Immediate Actions path for logic that should run synchronously at record save time (field updates, record creation)
  4. Add a Scheduled Path under Time Source (e.g., 3 days after record last modified) for follow-up automation such as sending a reminder
  5. Use the $Record variable to access triggering record field values; use $Record__Prior to access pre-update values for changed-field detection
  6. Activate the flow; monitor via Flow Interview Errors and the Paused and Waiting Interviews view for scheduled path failures
