# Flow Builder
The central hub for creating sequential experiences like tours and surveys. It helps you organize, manage, and connect steps with ease, offering a clear visual of the user journey.
The Flow Builder simplifies how you create and manage multi-step experiences. Instead of navigating through individual steps via a top bar, you now have a **global view of the entire journey**.
Easily switch between steps, visualize progress, and manage the flow in one centralized interface.
## **First Time in the Flow Builder**
When you create a new experience from scratch, the Flow Builder provides a clean, structured workspace to organize your experience.
#### **Key Features in the Main View :**
1. **Top Bar: General Options**
* **(A) Tab Switcher:** Easily switch between the **Flow Builder** and **Content Builder**.
* **(B) General Settings:** Rename your experience or go back to the dashboard.
* **(D) Generic Options:** Access warnings, save progress, preview your experience, or go to **Target & Publish**.
2. **Main Workspace:**
* **Sidebar Menu (C):** Contains all available step types, grouped by category (e.g., guide, announce, engage). You can [drag and drop](#user-content-fn-1)[^1] these to build your flow.
* **Central Area:** The large, empty workspace where you place and organize your steps sequentially.
This setup is designed to give you a clear overview of the entire experience-building process, focusing on structure and organization.

## **Step Management**
Once you’ve added a step, the Flow Builder adapts to provide tools for managing individual steps and visualizing their connections.
**Key Features After Adding Steps :**
1. **Step Tools:**
* **Quick Actions (B):**
* Rename a step by double-clicking its name.
* Use icons for duplication, drag-and-drop rearrangement, and deletion.
* **Trigger Indicators (C):** Display the associated triggers (conditions and actions) for each step directly below it.
2. **Step Connections & Progress Flow:**
* [Visualize progress with arrows](#user-content-fn-2)[^2] showing the origin (trigger or CTA) and destination (next step) (D).
3. **Sidebar Menu Updates:**
* Another way to open/close the flow builder sidebar to drag and drop additional steps as needed (A).
4. **Quick Access to Content Builder:**
* Clicking on a step provides a direct link to its associated content in the Content Builder, making navigation clear while keeping a visual overview.
This view prioritizes step management, offering both a visual flow of the journey and efficient access to step-specific details.
