Automations

Limits & known limitations

Accepted product behavior — not open bugs. Prefer the workarounds below when testing.

Execute step is not a full send

Single-node Execute is for validating config. Channel sends and some waits are skipped. Use Test run or Run now for real delivery.

Editor tools

  • Pins persist after Save draft. Unpinned mock JSON is session-only.
  • Listen supports WhatsApp / AppChat message received and webhook. Other trigger families are not listen-capable yet.
  • Binary / file pin is not supported.
  • Sample-data tests are synthetic — they may lack a real contact for downstream channel nodes.

Catalog & integrations

  • Google Drive / Calendar — not offered (Sheets + optional Gmail only).
  • Join mode wait_any — reserved / disabled in the UI.
  • Contact custom fields and AI workflow generator are not in product yet.
