(SMC-FD) Latest Version: 6.0
Q1. What is a primary benefit of using Flow Designer over the
legacy Workflow Editor?
A) It requires extensive JavaScript coding for all logic.
B) It is only available for IT Service Management (ITSM)
applications.
C) It provides a low-code, reusable, and integrated automation
experience.
D) It cannot integrate with third-party REST APIs.
Answer: C
Rationale: Flow Designer is designed for low-code automation,
allowing administrators to create complex logic without heavy
scripting, unlike the older Workflow Editor. It supports reusable
,Page 2 of 122
components (actions, subflows) and integrates seamlessly with
IntegrationHub for external APIs .
Q2. In Flow Designer, what is the purpose of the "Data
Panel"?
A) To write server-side scripts.
B) To debug security access control lists (ACLs).
C) To view and drag data pills (variables) from triggers and
actions.
D) To display the graphical layout of the flow.
Answer: C
Rationale: The Data Panel on the right side of the canvas
displays all available data pills (outputs from triggers and
previous actions) that can be dragged into subsequent action
inputs .

Q3. Which role is generally required to create and edit flows
in Flow Designer?
A) snc_platform
B) workflow_admin
C) flow_designer
D) itil
Answer: C
Rationale: The flow_designer role grants the necessary
permissions to access the Flow Designer application and
create/edit flows. Additional roles may be required for specific
actions (e.g., flow_operator for running flows) .
Q4. When building a Flow, what does the "Run as" setting
define?
, Page 4 of 122
A) The user who will approve the flow task.
B) The user context under which the flow executes.
C) The name of the server executing the flow.
D) The schedule for the flow.
Answer: B
Rationale: The "Run as" setting determines the user identity used
for permission checks (ACLs) when the flow runs. If set to System,
it bypasses user-specific roles .
Q5. (Scenario) A developer notices a Flow runs perfectly in
the "Test" button but fails in production. What is the most
likely cause regarding "Run as"?
A) The test uses the System context, while the trigger uses a
specific user.
B) The flow was not saved before testing.
