Turn an automation on, pause it, and check it

You should be able to control an automation easily after it is set up.

Check its status

In Automations, find the relevant workflow and check whether it is active or still being prepared.

Pause a workflow

Use the disable option, if available, to stop new sends. Check whether messages already scheduled will be kept or canceled.

Fix a workflow

Edit its content, delays, or trigger as needed and run another test.

Prevent mistakes

Take special care with contact imports and tag changes. These actions should not trigger unexpected bulk sends.
