# Link two Flows

You might need more than one Flow to explain a certain scenario in your application. Whatfix enables you to connect one Flow to another Flow at any step. The user can either view the linked Flow or skip it.

![Link2Flows](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Link2Flows.gif?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)

## Linking two Flows is a two step process:

Step 1: [Find the Flow ID of the Flow that you want to link](/studio/docs/linking-two-flows#find-the-flow-id-of-the-flow-that-you-want-to-link) Step 2: [Link the Flows](/studio/docs/linking-two-flows#link-the-flows)

### Find the Flow ID of the Flow that you want to link

Use the following steps to get the Flow ID:

1. On the Whatfix Guidance dashboard, click **Content**. ![ia_left_nav_content](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/ia_left_nav_content.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)
2. Click **Flows**. ![ia_left%20nav_flows](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/ia_left%20nav_flows.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)
3. Click the Flow whose ID you want to copy. ![Linking_two_flows_021](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Linking_two_flows_02%281%29.jpg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)
4. Click **Flow ID**. ![Copy_Flow_ID_Click.png](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Copy_Flow_ID_Click.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)

> [!WARNING]
> Note:
> 
> - The Flow ID is copied to the clipboard.
> - Also view the Flow ID in the URL of the Flow. The last section in the URL is the ID of the Flow.
> 
> ![Flow_ID_in_URL](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Flow_ID_in_URL.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A33%3A22Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A33%3A22Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=G2P44VQAeC3as3uoBNYh%2BBOx3JsXPt0kEprhvizVcCk%3D)
