# Configure the Flow Automation Pop-up

When your users launch an automated Flow, a Pop-up appears on the bottom of the application while the rest of the screen is made non-interactive, that is, the user cannot interact with any element on the application. This Pop-up displays information such as the Flow name, the step number being auto-executed, and at which step the next user input is required.

Use the following steps to configure the Flow Automation Pop-up:

1. On the Whatfix Guidance dashboard, click **Style**. ![ia_left%20nav_style](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/ia_left%20nav_style.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A34%3A31Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A34%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=aQEOQezwnf%2BHQKSAS391QgBEi8UJLcwogKNpX3b3pYM%3D)
2. Click **Flows**. ![ia_style_flows](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/ia_style_flows.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A34%3A31Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A34%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=aQEOQezwnf%2BHQKSAS391QgBEi8UJLcwogKNpX3b3pYM%3D)

1. On the **Flow** page, click the **Automation** tab. ![Dashboard_flow_theme_automation](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Dashboard_flow_theme_automation.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A34%3A31Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A34%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=aQEOQezwnf%2BHQKSAS391QgBEi8UJLcwogKNpX3b3pYM%3D)
2. The following configurations can be changed:

- **Automation Message**: Enable or disable the Flow Automation Pop-up.
- **Next Input Required**: Show or hide information regarding when the next user input is required.
- **Background Opacity (%)**: This can be used to configure the opacity of the overlay. By default, it is set at 50%. ![Flow_Automation](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/Flow_Automation.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-12T07%3A34%3A31Z&se=2026-11-12T08%3A34%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=aQEOQezwnf%2BHQKSAS391QgBEi8UJLcwogKNpX3b3pYM%3D)

> [!NOTE]
> Info:
> 
> If the Flow has a [Display name](/studio/docs/add-a-dislay-name-to-whatfix-content), users see the Display Name in the automation message instead of the Flow Title. If no Display Name is set, users see the Flow Title.
