5. Commonly Asked Questions
1. I have made changes in my Journey. How will that affect my contacts?
The changes will reflect to future clients who will be added to the Journey, but won't affect the existing ones. You can restart the journey for your existing clients so they'd get the changes.
First, terminate the journey by going to your contacts dashboard, mark the checkbox of your selected contact, Bulk Action>Journeys>Terminate Journey.
Then reapply the trigger. Sign up on the Form using the same email address.
2. Can I see who's in my Journey?
Yes! Go to the journey you want to check, then click on the History Log at the bottom part.
