I am trying to create a flow which creates an account record and then navigates to the newly created record detail page
VF Code
<apex:page Controller="AccFlowController" TabStyle="Account">
<br/>
<flow:interview name="CreateAccount" interview="{!myflow}" finishlocation="{!AID}" />
Apex Class code
public class AccFlowController{
public Flow.Interview.Quick_Account myFlow { get; set; }
public String getmyID() {
if (myFlow==null) return '';
else return myFlow.accountId;
}
public PageReference getOID(){
PageReference p = new PageReference('https://dev-dev ed.my.salesforce.com/'+getmyID());
p.setRedirect(true);
return p;
}
}
However, when I try to save the class it is showing
Error: Compile Error: Variable does not exist: accountId
My flow has the following variable present
apex visual-workflow compile-error visual-flows

According to the documentation on Getting Flow Variables, you should call myFlow.getVariableValue:
String accountId = (String)myFlow.getVariableValue('accountId');

I tried it as well. But (String)myFlow.getVariableValue('accountId'); just fetches null even though the record is successfully created. @AdrianLarson

That seems like a problem with your flow, not your Apex. This answer resolves what you were doing wrong in the code you posted.

You were right. There was an issue with my flow. All I needed was a finish screen
