Hi, You recently sent an flowxo survey request via email, and the link triggered a flow in the FlowxoBot. How did you trigger a flow from a link? Thanks

Sure! When you use ref=??? in a Messenger link, when you receive the message as a trigger, there will be a value of ref in the metadata section.
To make use of this, you’ll need to add (or already have) a flow with a catch-all trigger. Then add a ‘Flow > Trigger a Flow’ action. Use the word/phrase that will trigger the flow that you want to run. On the filter step, in the value box find the metadata output from the trigger, and when you see the text entry box to type the property, type ref. The rest of the condition should be “equals” and then whatever you are sending in the ref field.
Finally, select the option to stop the flow if the filter is met and save.
So what’s happening here is that if a message comes in with ref set to some known value, we’ll switch the flow to handle this situation.
We are releasing a feature soon that will make this a heck of a lot easier
