DND:
The Do Not Disturb (DND) feature allows you to prevent your customers from receiving marketing messages or emails during designated hours, typically at night.
This ensures that your communications respect their peace.
Once the DND period ends, the flows will resume automatically from where they left off.
How Does DND Impact Flows?
When DND is active, any scheduled messages or emails will be paused and rescheduled to send after the DND period ends. This feature applies to:
Initiate-Flow: Dev APIs and initiate-flow from the CRM dashboard.
Webhook Triggers
Event Triggers
Special Date Triggers
Delay Blocks: Delays ending during DND hours will be smartly rescheduled for post-DND.
Important Notes:
DND settings are based on store settings, not individual customer settings.
The feature is not applicable in Test Mode flows.
Analytics will be updated once the DND period ends and the flow successfully runs.
