Overview
The "No flows available" error in Tines occurs when your tenant exceeds its allowable flow limit. A "flow" in Tines refers to a connected set of one or more actions within a Storyboard that can run automatically. Understanding this error will help you manage your workflows more efficiently and continue working without interruption.
Cause and solution
Exceeded Flow Limit
Your organization has reached the maximum number of flows as defined by your subscription. In Tines, an autonomous flow is one that runs on its own without requiring manual intervention. When you've used all available flows, you won't be able to create new ones or restore archived stories with flows.
🟢 Solution:
Archive unused stories to remove their flows from the active count.
Move stories to the "Personal Stories" section, as these don't count against your team's flow limit.
Consider requesting an increase to your flow allocation by upgrading your tenant subscription.
Restoring Stories With Connected Actions
When attempting to restore a story that contains connected actions, you may encounter this error if the total number of flows would exceed your allowed limit upon restoration.
🟢 Solution:
Before restoring, check your current flow usage and ensure you have enough available flows.
Archive other unused stories first to free up flow capacity.
Consider breaking down larger stories into smaller components with fewer flows.
Troubleshooting checklist
☑️ Review your current flow usage in your tenant settings
☑️ Identify and archive unused or redundant stories
☑️ Prioritize which stories are essential for production environments
☑️ Move development or test stories to Personal Stories when possible
☑️ Contact your Tines administrator about subscription limits
