Hi Nandhini,

Directly we don't have any option like trigger add error method. But using Record Trigger Flow, One Custom Field, Validation Rule we can achieve this. Because the before flows will fire before the custom validation rule.

Refer the below blogs:

Hi Nandhini,

Greetings!

You can use the addError() method to display the error message from the flow.Please refer the sample code for the example in the below thread:
