Catch flow errors before launch and control re-entry

You can now catch missing fields in email flows before switching them on, add existing contacts when launching, and choose whether people can repeat a sequence. You can also send yourself the full sequence as a test, set waits in hours or days, and add email preview text.

What’s changed

Before, flow errors were difficult to spot, existing contacts could not be enrolled on launch, and flows could only run once per contact. Now, errors are outlined directly on steps, existing contacts can be backfilled, and flows support re-entry and sequence testing.

How it works

1. Open any sequence in the flow editor to see live checks and amber outlines highlighting any empty fields.
2. Click Switch on to view validation warnings under the button and optionally add existing contacts on your list.
3. Use Can people go through it again? to keep flows once only or allow re-entry after 1, 7, 30, or 90 days.
4. Select Send me every email to test the entire sequence delivered directly to your inbox in order.

Good to know

• Adding existing contacts is available for joined, downloaded, enrolled, and finished triggers, and sends at up to 200 an hour.
• Backfilling contacts is never offered for checkouts, sales, refunds, or gone quiet triggers.
• Weekly sending limits will not delay checkout recovery emails or immediate responses to student actions.
• Preview text can now be added to flow emails and appears directly in the inbox preheader.
