In advanced flows, I added a “start flow” but can’t get any flows into “flow” (see pic. below). It is empty no matter what I do.

What do I do wrong?

Hardware & Software: Homey Pro, version 12.7.0, with a lot of “normal” flows and several advanced flows

Thanks in advance,

I thing I found the solution 🙂 … It’s because I have no flows that require an input
