Checklist
Checklists are great for organizing multiple flows from a demo into a series of tasks. This enables the visitor to decide which flow to engage with next at any time.

​
Creating a checklist demo

Follow these steps to create your first demo with a Checklist:
1

Create a Checklist

Within your demo, select Checklist > + Create Checklist to get started. Most Checklists will incorporate 4-6 Tasks that start different Flows. When using a Checklist, we recommend keeping individual Flows to 5-9 steps each.
2

Select either floating or sidebar

Checklists are automatically displayed using the Floating layout, which includes the Checklist launcher. The Checklist can be opened by clicking the Checklist Launcher, using the Launch after flow start Setting, or through various buttons, beacons, or triggers configured with the Open Checklist action.Alternatively, you can choose the Sidebar Layout, where the checklist stays open permanently on the side of your demo, providing continuous access throughout.
3

Add a title and tasks

A blank checklist will appear with the option to add a title, description (optional), and various Tasks. Tasks are the individual components of a Checklist, which appear when the Checklist is expanded. Similar to how Buttons behave in a Flow, Tasks in a Checklist can support a variety of Click Actions.
