Flow triggers

Flow trigger is the compulsory condition to activate an automation flow. There’re 2 types of flow triggers that you can select from

• ACTION: Contacts will enter the automation flow when they take a specific action
  • Someone placed an order
  • Someone abandoned their checkout 
  • An order is fulfilled 

• SEGMENT: Contacts will enter the automation flow if they are added to specific segments 

Flow elements 

Flow elements are actions running in the automation workflow. 

• Emails: You can select a template email or create a new one using the drag & drop editor

• A/B testing conditions: Test two variants of your emails to the same audience. You can modify the variable percentage of A/B testing (It’s 50-50 in default) 

• T/F branch conditions: Let you deliver personalized emails based on customer behavior with the precedent emails 

• Time delay: Set the delay time before proceeding to the next action
