The Open Modal Action is used to open a Web Flow as a modal. When a Web flow is opened as a modal, the user must finish the modal Flow before returning to the screen that opened it. This is useful for creating confirmation screens, or for creating a flow where the user can fill out information and then easily return to where they were in the App.
