Overviews

Overviews are the pages where the things you have created are listed for you to find. This can be e.g. Campaign drafts, journeys or segments.

Campaign and automation overviews show all channels in one place. When you enter Campaign drafts, you see all your drafts, regardless of channel. To narrow your view, you can filter on Channel.

In Campaigns you may see both campaign types Multi Step Campaign flows and Single step (old campaign module).

 

By clicking the arrow on multi step rows (Multi Step Campaign) you can see the individual send steps within the campaign.

The Campaigns and Automation pages are where you do your everyday work with editing your communication. Reporting is not shown here.

You can see your sent campaigns from here and copy them to drafts. Statistics for all sending modules are found under Reports.
