    Start Process smart service - A function that starts a process when triggering an interface reevaluation ( from the UI, the process can be started in  3 ways, a!startprocess, a! startprocess link, record actions).

    Call a web API.: You can call the process using the start process smart service you can initiate a process from Appian RPA as well

    Use a subprocess: A subprocess can help you start a process from a process
