Best Practice for configuring registry flows

avatar
Expert Contributor

Hello team & community 🙂

I am looking into deploying many instances of a flow that is versioned in a git registry via the REST API. My current issue is that I would like to configure each instance of this flow dynamically, though if I version the flow with a Parameter Context attached to it, whenever I deploy instances of it they all end up attaching to a single Parameter Context.

 

I understand this is the expected behaviour as described in the documentation. Therefore, I'd like to know if there is any recommended practice for situations such as mine. 

The best solution I could think of was perhaps configuring the processors in the flow to use parameters but not to actually attach a PC to the process group. This way I could deploy flows in two steps by first importing them and then creating a new parameter context & configuring/attaching it.

 

I would greatly appreciate any advice for this use-case,

Thank you.
