  • ContentDocumentid – This is the ID of the file you uploaded. You can use this to delete the uploaded file.
  • ContentVersionid – This can be used to retrieve the content of an uploaded file.
  • Created By – This is the name of who created the file.

  • File Name – This is the file name and can be used to filter files in your flow.
  • Last Modified By – This is the name of the last user to modify the file.
  • Owner – This is the user that owns the file.
  • Parent Object – This is the object that the file was uploaded to. This can be used when creating separate flows for files that were uploaded to different objects such as contacts or accounts.
  • Parent Recordid – Allows you to interact with the record where the file was uploaded.
  • TFile Name – This is the name of the TFile Object.
