    • Name: Enter the name of the process - Custom metadata type in Flow -PB.
    • API Name: This will be auto-populated, based on the name.
    • Description: Write some meaningful text, so that other developers or administrators can easily understand why this process was created.
    • This process starts when: Configure the process to start when a record is created or edited. In this case, select A record changes.
