I have a question about subflows. I have one main flow that will be calling many subflows. If I open a browser in one subflow and leave it open, is there a way to continue to use that browser instance (from the previous subflow) in my next subflow? Or do I have to open another browser within the new flow? It looks like the variable 'Browser' transfers but I keep getting the error "Argument 'BrowserInstance' must be 'Web browser instance'." Thanks!
Hi Jonathan, Yes the action that launches the browser should create a flow variable called something like InstanceID that can then be reused throughout your subflows. I'm not sure why about the error mentioned. That error doesn't provide much info does it?
@@desktopdatacrunching4032 thanks for the reply! I actually just scratched everything and re made the process (luckily I was only a few hours in) and it worked as expected! I opened the browser in one subflow and then used the “go to webpage” action and referenced the variable output from the first. I’ve noticed for a few of my errors if I just restart or re create the issues seem to work itself out!

can we run a subflow independently if my flow is too big and i want to run only some chunk of it?
You can. Just right click on the first item in the subflow and run it from that point.

sound and video when not at the same time for me
