Business value
With this feature, you can run a child desktop flow in parallel with its parent flow. This feature helps you handle unexpected pop-ups in the target application that block the parent flow. When you run a child flow in parallel, you can monitor and manage these pop-ups so the parent flow keeps running smoothly. This improvement removes the limitation of the current concurrency policy, which permits only one flow per machine at a time.
Feature details
In desktop flows, the Run desktop flow action now includes a toggle that lets you set the child desktop flow to run in parallel. This toggle defaults to running the child flow in sequence, so existing actions in previous flows aren't affected.
Only one parallel run is allowed. If you set a second child flow to run in parallel, an error occurs, and the flow ignores any potential outputs of the child flow.
