Updating the source of a flow allows you to modify where your content comes from without having to create a new flow. For most flows, you can make these updates even while the flow is running.
Note
You can't update an entitled flow while it's active. Before you follow the steps below to update an entitled flow, you must stop the flow first. After you make your updates, you can then restart the flow.
