I'm creating a welcome email series and we'd like an email to go out each week so the person gets tip 1, then 2, then 3...you get the idea...there are 50 tips...so basically a years worth...my question is...do I have the have the entire journey set up prior to activating and going live or can I add to the automation along the way?

Hi @StefanieM02. After a series is activated, you can edit the content of an email or the action that triggers the email, but additional emails cannot be added after it is activated.

@Caitlin_M so i guess the workaround is to add the steps and then customize the additional emails at a later date?

Hi @StefanieM02.  Yes, this would be a workaround since you can edit the content of the email.
