Just completed the demo exercise "Quick Account" flow for the Introduction to Visual Workflow, the Cloud Flow Designer and Flows

And the phone number does not format properly when the new Account Record is created - why is that?
Thanks, Roger

The phone number is not formatted in flows because when we are creating input fields in flow, we don't have data type phone to choose.

Please see below screenshot.
