Find and Fix Errors Before You Publish
The builder checks your triggers and actions for configuration problems such as empty required fields, disconnected integrations, or incomplete If/Else and Wait settings. Issues are flagged on the canvas and collected in a single panel.
Saving versus publishing
You can save at any time, even with errors showing, so unfinished work is never lost. Autosave works the same way. Publishing is stricter: problems that would stop a workflow from running correctly must be fixed first.
Resolve errors step by step
- Open the workflow and build as usual, saving as needed.
- Click Publish.
- If something blocks publishing, a message lists the affected steps. Click Review issues.
- The Resolve Errors sidebar lists each problem and its step.
- For each entry, click Open step to jump to that step's settings, or How to fix for AI-generated guidance on the problem.
- Correct the setting. The red marker and sidebar entry disappear once it is valid.
- Repeat for the remaining items, then publish.
Examples of what gets flagged
- A trigger with no calendar selected.
- An SMS step with an empty message body.
- An email step missing a subject.
- An integration whose connection has expired and needs reconnecting.
Two kinds of errors
Pre-publish errors are setup problems you see in the builder. Errors that occur while contacts are running through a live workflow are different; check Execution Logs and Enrollment History for those.
You can hide the red markers to declutter the canvas, but hiding does not fix the issue.
Good to know: AI guidance is a helpful starting point, but always read the suggested change before accepting it.
