If you want to reuse an embedded flow in another flow, you must convert the embedded flow to a subflow. This is because embedded flows cannot be used in other flows. Once you convert an embedded flow to a subflow, it can be used like any other subflow.

Note: If the embedded flow has iteration enabled, iteration settings will be removed when it is converted to a subflow. Subflows do not support iteration.
  1. Open the flow containing the embedded flow that you want to convert to a subflow.
  2. Right-click the embedded flow and select Convert Stage to Subflow.
  3. Enter a name for the new subflow and click OK.

The embedded flow is converted to a subflow and available to use in other flows.
