Overview
When another Web Flow calls the Open Modal Action, the Web Flow that was opened as a modal must call the Close Modal Action to return to the original Web Flow. The Close Modal Action has a Return Value that can be used to send data back to the original Web Flow.
If the current Web Flow is not being presented as a modal, this Action has no effect.
Use Cases

- A modal to allow the user to create or edit data in a list. For instance, in the GIF below, a modal opens when the user presses the Edit Info button, which allows them to edit their car information:
