We welcome feedback at Previously, Flow actions and triggers were defined in the partner dashboard. As [Shopify CLI](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@shopify/cli) adoption has expanded, this meant that you needed to manage and deploy your Flow extensions separately from the rest of your app. Going forward, you will now create your Flow tasks and actions through the CLI. You can follow these guides for how to create both [triggers](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/flow/triggers/create-a-trigger) and [actions](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/flow/actions/create-an-action) through the CLI. In addition, you can [migrate your existing tasks](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/flow/migrating-flow-legacy-extensions) to be CLI-managed, unifying your code. For more details on what is possible, you can also consult Flow’s reference guide for [triggers](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/flow/triggers/reference) and [actions](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/flow/actions/reference). To create Flow extensions using the CLI, version 3.48 or higher is required. Please note that Flow does not currently support the `app dev` command.
