Compose a workflow message

Workflows is built around the messages you want to send. Before you build a workflow or add subscribers, compose the messages that you intend to include in your workflow.

To navigate to Workflow Messages, first open up Messages. Then, click the Workflow Messages tab in the Messages navigation. Click the Create Workflow Message button in the top-right corner to start a new message.

Composing a workflow message works just like a regular message. Refer to Create a new message for more details on this process.

However, here are a few tips that are specific to Workflow Messages: 

  1. Use any of your existing Messages templates as a starting point.
  2. Stay organized by using our convenient folder system. Any Workflow Messages that are not placed into a folder will be housed under Uncategorized

  3. Unlike regular messages, the Message Details screen does not include a selection for type of message or sending information. 

Make any changes in the message editor, then proceed to the Message Details screen.

Best practice

Use the internal name field to name your messages according to which workflow(s) they are part of, to make it easier to find when you’re building the workflow.
