How It Works: Creating a Screen Flow for Guest Users

3. Embed the Flow: Embed the Screen Flow component onto your Salesforce site, making it accessible to guest users.
4. Adjust your screen flow’s access by selecting the option “Adjust the default settings by restricting access to selected profiles or permission sets,” and then save the changes.

And don’t forget to provide access to appropriate objects that are used in your screen flow.
