This article provides a comprehensive overview of managing your Workflows effectively:

Editing a Workflow
Before editing a Workflow, here are a few important notes:
If a Contact is already in a Workflow, only changes to steps they haven’t reached will affect them.
Enrolled Segments cannot be removed from a Workflow. You will need to set the Workflow to inactive, duplicate the Workflow from the Workflows page, and then select the new Workflow to continue.
To edit a Workflow, follow these steps:
Navigate to Data + Automations > Workflows > All Workflows
Locate and click on the name of the Workflow you want to edit
Starting and Stopping Workflows
Starting and Stopping Workflows
Note: If you stop a Workflow, the already enrolled contacts will stop at the step they have reached. They will not be affected by any other actions as per the Workflow. Furthermore, no new Contacts will be added to the Workflow until it is restarted.
Navigate to the drop-down menu near the name of the Workflow that says Active or Inactive, depending on its current state. Set it to Active if you want it to run or Inactive if you want it to stop running.
Monitoring Workflow Activity
The View Tab
Navigating to View at the top of the Workflow will show you the overall activity for the Workflow.
Audience: Counts of the Contacts currently active in your Workflow and those who have exited.
Steps: At each step, the number of contacts who have entered and exited is listed.
The People Tab
Navigating to People at the top of the Workflow will show you a list of every Contact enrolled.
For each Contact, you will see the following information:
Name (linked to their record for easy and quick access)
Status (active or finished)
Date/time stamp of when they were added
The last step they were at
You can also take contact-specific actions on the People tab:
View the Contact's Record
Remove Workflow*
End Workflow*
*These two actions are covered step-by-step below.
Removing a Contact from a Workflow
Removing a Contact from a Workflow will prevent them from advancing to other steps. This action cannot be undone once you confirm the removal, but they can reenter the Workflow in the future.

Click the People tab at the top.
Click the more icon (three vertical dots) at the end of the Contact's row.
Select Remove Workflow.
Ending the Workflow for a Contact
They will not move forward in the Workflow. This action cannot be undone.
To end the Workflow for a Contact:

Click the People tab at the top.
Click the more icon (three vertical dots) at the end of the Contact's row.
Select End Workflow.
