Questions:

In a flow action how do you change the Lead Owner to a token value?

What format does the field used as a token need to be?

What does the field need to be populated with?

  • OwnerId?
  • Owner Email Address?
  • etc

I am working on a Referral campaign and wanted to change the owner of the Referral lead to the same owner as the Referrer.  We have a custom field that we could have used as a token but that flow action does not accept using a token I found out.  We have developed a workaround in Salesforce.  So this is no longer needed.

Why do you want to do this?

Lead Owner is usually formatted as FIRST NAME LAST NAME

so as long as the result matches a real SFDC User, it may work. It's also possible that field does not accept Tokens.
