Validate Phone - Screen Flow Action

The Screen Flow Action "Validate Phone" lets you validate a phone number in a screen flow.

How to use Validate Phone in your flow

1 Add the "Validate Phone" Flow Action to your flow

  1. Open the Lightning Flow Builder.
  2. From the Elements section, drag a new screen from the Toolbox onto the canvas.
  3. At Label and API Name, define a label and an API name for the screen.
  4. From the Screen Components section, scroll down to Custom and drag the Plauti Verify - Validate Phone screen component onto the screen.

2 Fill out the fields

  1. At API Name, define an API name for the screen component. For example ValidatePhone.

  2. At Default Country, fill out the abbreviation of the country you want to use by default. For example, NL for "Netherlands" or US for "United States". Plauti Verify needs this information to validate the phone number in the right country.

  3. Field API Name is used for saving the validation results. Enter the API Name of the target field if you want to save the validation results.

  4. At Phone Format, enter the phone format you want to use.

  5. Optionally, fill out the other fields with variables or fixed values, or leave them blank.

  6. Click Done.

This Flow Action only validates the input; it does not save the result. Learn more about how to save the validation results.
