Trigger Can a field update from an autolaunch flow fire a trigger?
I am launching an autolaunched flow from a trigger. When a field is updated on my custom object, the trigger fires and the flow runs successfully. The problem is the flow updates a field which should fire another trigger. It doesn't fire the trigger. When I update the field manually,the trigger fires. It just doesn't fire when the field is updated by the flow.
From what I have read, a field update should be able to fire a trigger so I don't know why it's not firring.
Can anyone offer an explenation?
Thank you

The declarative process automation tools have some built in recursion control which could potentially be playing a role here. Are you familiar with the "Re-evaluate Workflow Rules" checkbox on field updates? Basically that allows the actions taken by the process automation tool (WF rule, process builder etc.) to trip additional rules as a result of the action. Anyway that box is defaulted to off and has to be manually set so maybe the same is true when calling a flow from your apex trigger. Not really sure how that works but just trying to throw some ideas at you.
