You can create a new flow service in the following ways:

Create an empty flow service and define it yourself by inserting flow steps.

Create a flow service from a source file, such as an XML Schema, DTD, or XML document. If you are building a flow service that extracts data from an XML document, you can select a source file from which to automatically generate the logic (that is, the set of flow steps) that will get data from a specified document, rather than building this logic manually.

Note:
When you specify a new service name at the time of creating a new REST V2 resource operation, Designerautomatically creates the specified flow service under the same folder as the REST V2 resource. For details, see Defining a REST V2 Resource Operation.
