# Flows
**Flows** in FlytBase is a dynamic feature designed to streamline operational efficiency by configuring the drone's response to specific alarm triggers or operational notifications. These workflows allow for the deployment of drones in response to various alarm sources, with the option for missions to be approved manually or carried out automatically for repetitive events. They also allow selected organisation members to keep track of the drone operations by staying notified through emails or SMS.
This capability empowers the integrated **Flinks** and significantly enhances responsiveness in sectors such as emergency response, security, and infrastructure monitoring, by reducing response times and the need for constant human intervention.

**Quick Alarm and Flows Logs:**
A **condensed version** of the Alarms and Flows logs can be found in the **Integrations Panel** on the right side of the Dashboard. This panel also displays all Flinks, any alarms triggered within those Flinks. Additionally if a flow is configured with an alarm you can see the response details as well.
