Power Automate Instant Flow button not visible in the Business Central User Interface

Hi,
 
I'm trying to create instant flows in Power Automate, such as one for the customer card:
 
 
This is the basic flow:
 
 
 
But when I save the flow I created, it doesn't appear in the Business Central interface in the customer card. I expected a button for the new flow to be visible. For example, the flow should appear like in the below screenshot (the screenshot below is from a youtube vide).
 
 
What am I missing? Why are my flows not appearing. Please don't send links to Microsoft documentation or AI-generated answers, I can find those myself.
 
Things I've tried: ensured in the Privacy Notices Status Page the privacy notice for power automate is selected, run assisted setup for power automate, verified my user is a super user.

    Hi, This is a bit strange. Try closing New Designer.
    I tried it and after saving it, I didn't encounter the problem you mentioned.
     
    Thanks

    Hi Sagar_Dangar_MCP, thanks for the response. I did change the parameter to "PAGE21" as you can see in my screenshot.

    Hi Yun, thanks for the response. 
     
    Note that I did use the "For a selected record (V3)" trigger. For some reason when you create a new flow the trigger is called "For a selected record (V3)" but once you save it, it automatically renames itself to "manual." That's why in my screenshot it says manual.

    Hi,
     
    I think you changed below marked parameter.
     
    It will work if do not change parameter, after creating from standard template.

    Hello,

    To make the flow available on the current page in Business Central, use the 'For a selected record (V3)' trigger and ensure the correct parameters are set.

    If you want to display on the current page, please note that the first trigger is For a selected record (V3)
    Then check that the correct parameters are set.

    Hope the following helps.
    Thanks.
