Hi, I don’t get any AF flows with the standard function: const flows = await Homey.flow.getFlows(); Can someone confirm this, please? Maybe the api has changed a little bit with AF. ---

Hi @Dijker, one more question, please: Homey.flow.getAdvancedFlows() and extracting the flow ids work now. But I got the following error with triggering an advanced flow. Any idea what could cause the problem? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/2/c25aa4d14594155cf7a57d68657fb4664cb6c44a.png) Same here: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/c/2c1bb8ec0fc01deb78ecccfd551a0b2f216e90bf.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/7/279e9b7238758f871a9bb8969b27d6cec2df2373.png) ---

THX! Please could you tell us how it is possible to call a flow with a variable in homeyscript. Like the new flow cards. ---

```auto const result = await Homey.flow.runFlowCardAction({ uri: 'homey:manager:flow', id: 'programmatic_trigger_string_tag', args: { flow: { type: 'advanced', id: '6f28af21-2b4e-40f8-91e6-e56681c31a7d' }, string: 'myvalue' } }); console.log(result); ``` ---

Hi Jero, I have got a nice change request: Please make the edit window of inline scripts resizeable. At the moment it feels like editing in a porthole πŸ˜‰ THX ---

Works like charm πŸ™‚ How can I find out the properties of the flow object in the args in general by myself? I mean getFlowCardActions shows the flow property itself and that I need the target flow id is clear. But how had I been able to find out the type property? > [@Jero](#): > > ```auto > args: { > flow: { > type: 'advanced', > id: '6f28af21-2b4e-40f8-91e6-e56681c31a7d' > }, > > ``` THX for your time! ---

Only way to find that one out is to actualy create a Flow that has the card filled in and check the JSON of that Flow to see what it looks like/accepts.
