Journeys

A Journey is an ongoing automated campaign. Once active, it runs automatically for every customer who meets the entry condition — you don’t need to send it manually. Use Journeys for welcome series, re-engagement flows, birthday messages, and any campaign that should repeat for each customer individually.

Plan Available on Growth and above (Omnichannel module). Journey limits vary by plan: 25 on Growth, 75 on Business, effectively unlimited on Enterprise.

Go to /business/:id/marketing and click the Journeys tab, or open Omnichannel in the sidebar and select Journeys.

A journey has three building blocks:

BlockWhat it does
Entry triggerThe condition that enrolls a customer — joining a segment, submitting a form, or a specific event.
StepsMessages (Email, SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, Push) sent along the way.
Delays and splitsWait a set time between steps, or branch based on whether a customer is in a segment.

Customers move through the steps in order. Once they exit (reach the end or leave the entry segment), they don’t re-enter until the journey is paused and restarted, or you use a new entry condition.

You can create a journey two ways:

To build directly in the journey editor, click + New journey on the Journeys tab.

Every journey requires an entry trigger. The supported trigger types are:

Trigger typeWhen a customer enters
SegmentWhen a customer joins (or is already in) a specific segment.
Form submissionWhen a customer submits a specific form. See Attach a form to a journey.
EventWhen a tracked event fires for that customer.

Important A journey that uses a Segment entry with a split node must use a segment that the journey itself can evaluate. If you see a validation error on deployment, check that the entry segment exists and is correctly named.

Inside the journey editor:

  1. Click + Add step to add a message node. Select the channel (Email, SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, Push) and choose or create a template.
  2. Click + Add delay between steps to wait a set number of hours or days.
  3. Click + Add split to branch the journey based on segment membership. Customers in the segment take the “true” branch; others take the “false” branch.
ActionWhat it does
ActivateThe journey starts enrolling customers immediately.
PauseStops new enrollments; customers already in-flight continue.
ArchiveRemoves the journey from the active list. Cannot be undone from the UI.

To change the status, open the journey and use the status control at the top of the editor, or use the menu on the Journeys list.

Note You cannot edit the entry trigger of an active journey. Pause the journey first, make your changes, then reactivate.

Segments are the groups of customers that journeys and broadcasts target. Manage them on the Segments tab of Omnichannel (?component=segments). See also Customers.
