How the Opportunity Path Works

In Sales Cloud you follow every deal via a visual path. Each stage has its own fields, tasks and automations. Click on a stage to see what happens in that step.

The Opportunity Path provides structure in your sales process. Each stage is measurable, consistent and traceable — from first contact to closed deal.

Examples of Automation

Here are concrete examples of how we automate Sales Cloud with Flow. These automations ensure your team can focus on selling instead of administration.

Notification on closed deal

With a record-triggered flow, an email or Slack notification is sent to the sales manager when an Opportunity reaches the Closed Won stage. The deal amount determines whether an email or call notification is sent. Large deals get immediate attention.

Flow: Opportunity Closed Won → Check Amount → Send Notification

Contact registration via screen flow

A screen flow helps salespeople create new contacts within an Account. With reactive components, the flow shows existing contacts once an account is selected and checks that required fields are filled. Prevents duplicates and ensures complete data.

Screen Flow: Select Account → Show Existing Contacts → Validate Fields → Create Contact

Fast field update

An example of a before-save flow that automatically fills the description based on the Lead Source when creating a Lead. This flow runs before database save, ensuring data is always consistent without manual input.

Before Save Flow: Lead Created → Check Lead Source → Update Description
