The 8 Lego Blocks
Steps are the toy blocks of your automation town. Just like building a castle with colorful plastic bricks, you can stack, swap, and connect them in whatever order you want! Whenever a person enters your flow, Mailofly moves them through each block one at a time.The 3 Teams of Blocks
All 8 blocks belong to three friendly teams:1. The Starting Horn (Triggers)
Every castle has a front gate. This block sits at the very top of your canvas and acts like the starting horn for a race.- The Doorbell Button (Trigger): Wakes up whenever an app signal (like
user.signup) rings.
2. The Traffic Policemen (Timing & Choices)
These blocks guide the flow of traffic so nobody gets rushed or lost.- The Cozy Egg Timer (Delay): Hits the snooze button for minutes, hours, or days!
- The Yes/No Quiz Fork (Condition): Asks a question and sends users down two different roads.
- The Waiting Game (Wait for Event): Waits until the user performs a specific action, with a fallback timer.
3. The Busy Bees (Actions)
These blocks actually do work and make things happen!- The Digital Mailman (Send Email): Drops a personalized email right into their inbox.
- Club Badges (Add to Segment): Hands out a club badge by adding the user to a special segment.
- Profile Card Pen (Update Contact): Writes new details or tags onto their audience card.
- The Friendly Paper Shredder (Delete Contact): Safely erases a user’s data when they ask to close their account.
