Say Goodbye to Short Action Names: GoHighLevel Increases Workflow Character Limit!
Alright, listen up. These workflows in GoHighLevel? Theyâre the engine that powers your automation. And if youâve ever felt squeezed by the old character limits when naming your actions, especially concerning the workflow character limit, you know what Iâm talking about. The silent workhorses that keep your leads flowing and your follow-ups firing without you breaking a sweat. But letâs be real, sometimes naming those actions and triggers felt like trying to cram a ten-gallon hat on a five-gallon head. That measly 55-character limit? Sheesh. Youâd end up with these cryptic little labels that only you maybe understood, and even then, sometimes youâd be scratching your head wondering what âFB Msg Seq 1â actually did.
Well, the crew over at GoHighLevel heard the grumbling. They get it. You need room to clearly spell out what each step in your automation is doing. So, whatâd they do? They went ahead and uncorked the bottle. Thatâs right, theyâve nearly doubled the space youâve got to name your workflow actions and triggers! Weâre talking a jump all the way up to a clean 100 characters. Finally, you can say goodbye to those head-scratching abbreviations and hello to crystal-clear labeling. This âworkflow character limitâ increase might seem like a small thing, but itâs gonna make a big difference in how smoothly you can build, manage, and understand your automations.
Think about those sprawling workflows youâve built. The ones with all the twists and turns. Now, you can name each action with enough detail that anyone â including your future self â can instantly grasp its purpose. No more clicking into each step just to figure out what it does. This means faster building, easier troubleshooting, and a whole lot less frustration. Itâs about making your automation engine run cleaner and meaner.
Streamline your GoHighLevel workflows with clearer, more descriptive action and trigger names, leading to better organization and easier management of your automation.
How This Helps You: Clarity, Organization, and Collaboration Unleashed
This isnât just about having more letters; itâs about what you can do with them. Hereâs how this increased âworkflow character limitâ is going to make your GoHighLevel life easier:
- More descriptive names for better clarity. Letâs face it, âSend Emailâ is okay, but âSend Welcome Email to New Lead Segment Aâ tells a much clearer story. Now you can easily identify the precise purpose of each action at a glance, reducing the mental load when youâre reviewing or editing your workflows.
- Enhanced organization within complex workflows. Got a multi-step follow-up sequence with different paths based on lead behavior? Now you can clearly label each branch and action, making even the most intricate workflows easier to navigate and understand. Say goodbye to the spaghetti code of automation!
- Improved team collaboration. If youâre working with a team, clear and descriptive action names are a lifesaver. New team members can quickly grasp the logic of your workflows, and everyone stays on the same page, reducing confusion and the potential for errors.
