An App used to exist that added a flow card in the THEN section off all your flows automatically. That was ideal for debugging flows.

Does anyone know an alternative?

For example with the e-mail sender app it is possible to send emails with the complete log of the truncated part for archiving in email. The following Triggers / …

This still works in v5 too.
