Overview
The Email action in Automations is used to add a one-to-one email as a step within your automation.
Adding an Email
Emails in automations are one-to-one campaigns that subscribers will receive once they reach that step in the automation. You can add an email to automation by clicking the Plus symbol in the corresponding echelon of the flow you want it to be placed, then select Email from the pop up window
.
Once you have added an email module to your flow. You can give it a name for your own records and a subject line in the left hand side navigation. Then click Compose to design your email.
You'll be directed to our email composer where you can add content and create your campaign. Once you're done, click Save & Exit and you'll be directed back to your automation in progress.
Email Statuses
Emails can be enabled and disabled with the on/off toggle or by enabling them within the automation composer.
When an email is off and an automation is on, the step will be skipped in the flow as if it wasn't added.
Emails that are on will trigger the single email composed to each subscriber as they reach that step in the automation.
