Initialising a process flow manually

Introduction

Typically, process flows will run on an automated basis, as per trigger shape settings. However, there may be times when you want to run a flow immediately - for example, if you're testing a new flow, or troubleshooting a sync issue.

When you run a process flow manually, you'll see each shape animate as it's reached, with real-time logs displayed in a side panel.

Before running a process flow manually, make sure that you won't be duplicating data, or causing duplication next time the process flow runs according to trigger settings.
