Use Bridge designer to create workflows.
USM Content
The designer is where you create your workflows in Bridge. You can access it from Home by selecting New Workflow or one of your recently viewed workflows.
Combining elements in your workflow allows you to gather data from various sources using integrations or API calls, manipulate the data with a wide range of Utilities, drive different outcomes using Junctions, and generate dynamic Rich Media responses.

Workflows elements
- Modules to manipulate, process or gather data. These are found under Integrations and Utilities.
- Junctions to split your workflow into multiple possible outcomes when making decisions.
- Child Workflows to break out a portion of big workflows or for duplicated sections of a workflow.
Just drag and drop the element you need from the left menu into the designer.
To set up each element, select it, and a panel appears on the right-hand side of the screen.
You can add as many states or modules to your workflow as required.
Workflow names cannot be changed after creation.
To merge branches of workflows:
- Select the state or module you want to merge.
- Hold down the ALT button (Option on Mac).
- Select the state or module below that you want to merge with.
Errors when saving a workflow trigger
If you receive an error message when saving a trigger, review the following items:
- Make sure you spell the column name exactly as you did on the sheet.
- If you typed in the sheet name instead of using the sheet ID, check that you also spelled this the same.
- If you are not the sheet owner, check your sheet permissions to ensure you have access.
