# Resume

Pair this with [Start](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/flow-lifecycle/startflowaction.md) and [Finish](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/flow-lifecycle/finishflowaction.md) actions. Use this action after a Screen Flow action to resume execution tracing for individual executions of the Flow ("interviews" in Flow-speak). Screen Flow actions can cause the transaction for the Flow execution to change which makes execution tracing difficult. Resuming tracking of the original transaction from the [Start](/kb/automation-builder-kit-abk/actions/flow-lifecycle/startflowaction.md) will allow us to continue to track the full Flow execution lifecycle.
