Control Flow Navigation from an Aura Component

By default, users navigate a flow by clicking standard buttons at the bottom of each screen. The lightning:availableForFlowScreens interface provides two attributes to help you fully customize your screen's navigation. To figure out which navigation actions are available for the screen, loop through the availableActions attribute. To programmatically trigger one of those actions, call the navigateFlow action from your JavaScript controller.

When you override the screen's navigation with an Aura component, remember to hide the footer so that the screen has only one navigation model.
