We utilize scanner events to scan barcodes, extract item numbers, and retrieve item descriptions, locations, and stock balances. While this process generally works fine, we've noticed that Flow attempts to execute the API for connector steps even before scanning.

In the screenshot provided, you can see that there are three APIs that utilize the scanned item number to collect data. These APIs are triggered when the user step is displayed for the first time, even if the item number is blank. This leads to issues and longer response times.

If we bypass scanner events, the APIs should still run. However, I believe the optimal design should involve triggering the APIs only when the scanner event occurs.
