Edit the Content of a Draft or Scheduled Email Campaign

Spotted a typo or a wrong link after building a campaign? You can update the content without starting over. How you do it depends on whether the campaign is still a draft or already scheduled.

Edit a draft

Drafts have not been scheduled, so they open straight from the list.

1. Go to Marketing > Emails > Campaigns and open Email Campaigns.
2. Click the draft campaign.
3. Make your changes in the editor.
4. Click Save.

Edit a scheduled or ongoing campaign

Once a campaign is scheduled, clicking it does not open the editor. Use the action menu instead.

1. In the Email Campaigns list, find the scheduled or ongoing campaign.
2. Open its Actions menu.
3. Select Update Email Content.
4. Edit the email in the builder.
5. Click Save.

This is also the way to refresh the copy of a batch or RSS campaign that is still running.

Timing matters

Saving does not guarantee that the very next email uses your edit. Emails are prepared in advance and cached, so a change made shortly before the send time may be missed and the earlier version could go out. There is no guaranteed lead time, so edit as early as you can.

If a campaign is only minutes from sending and the change is critical, pause it, make the edit, then resume or reschedule.

Good to know: After editing, send yourself a test email to confirm that the saved version is the one being used.
