# Why can’t I save my flow?

Common reasons: **Flow name is empty** (required); flow **validation failed** (e.g. no terminal screen, invalid structure). The error message in the Save result modal explains the cause. Ensure at least one screen exists, the last screen is treated as terminal, and you have given the flow a name.
