9. How do you manage flow versions and deployments across environments?

Managing flows across environments is like managing code across dev, test, and production. You need proper structure for this.

Best Practices:

â€ĸ Use Solutions: Package flows inside solutions. This allows export/import between environments.

â€ĸ Environment Variables: Replace hardcoded values (like URLs or credentials) with environment variables.

â€ĸ Version Control: Keep a changelog or use naming like v1.2 – Added retry logic to maintain proper versions.

â€ĸ Test Before Deploying: Always test in a sandbox before pushing to production environment.
