What You're Looking At

This is your Automation Flows dashboard. It's where you build, manage, and monitor all your automated workflows across WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook.

Top Section Breakdown

Search Bar
Type a flow name to find it fast when you've got dozens running.

Sort Button
Orders your flows by name or last update. Click the arrow to flip between ascending and descending.

Filter Channels (All)
Tap this to show only WhatsApp flows, only Instagram flows, or everything at once.

+ New Flow Button (Blue)

Clicking on this will give you an option to choose which platform do you want this new flow that you want to create to be for? Whether it's WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook.

After that you get to choose a flow from one of the template flows that we have pre-built for each account or you can also start a blank automation from scratch.

For creating a new flow from scratch, you can learn how to work with the automation builder here.

The Count Line (From example screenshot up there)

"361 current total flows of 10000 allowed in your plan"

This tells you:

  • How many flows you've built (361)

  • Your plan's max limit (10,000)

  • When you hit the limit, the "+ New Flow" button grays out until you delete old flows or upgrade

Flow List Table

Each row is one automation. Here's what each column means:

Toggle (blue or gray)
Blue means the flow is live and firing. Gray means it's paused. Flip it off if you need to stop an automation without deleting it.

  • To edit name, you can click on that same edit button and once the automation flow builder opens and the name of the flow is displayed on the top right, you can edit the flow name from there.
