# Redirect users to a page before a checklist starts a flow

You can set up a checklist task so that clicking it first sends the user to a specific page, then starts a flow on that page. Use this when the flow points at elements that only exist on one page of your app.

## How do I send users to a page before a checklist task starts a flow?

For each checklist task that should do this:

1. In the Checklist builder, select the task and open its settings.
2. Add a **Navigate** action and enter the URL to send users to, for example your homepage or a specific product page.
3. Add a second action, **Start flow**, and select the flow to start.

When a user clicks the task, Userflow takes them to that page first, then starts the flow once the page has loaded.

> **Tip:** Make sure the flow's auto-start conditions fit the page you send users to. If the flow has a **Current page** condition, the Navigate URL should match it. See [URL pattern matching](/userflow/docs/url-pattern-matching).

## Can I do this from somewhere other than a checklist?

Yes. You can send users to the right page from inside the flow, guide them there step by step, or set it up from the Resource Center. See [How to navigate to a page when a flow starts](/userflow/docs/go-to-page-when-flow-starts).
