- The Flow you created is saved on Whatfix, the Flow needs to be pushed to the Whatfix CDN servers before it is available for your users. You may be able to see the content using the Preview mode or the See Live option (during content creation), but for the content to be live and reflect on your end user's application, you must perform a Push to Production.
-
Once you are done creating the Flow, select the content, and then click Send to ready.
-
Go to the Ready Stage and select the Flow to move it to Production Stage, and then click Push to production.
