Test a flow like a customer, on every platform

Chat with your flow before it goes live and see exactly how each message looks on WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Telegram and TikTok.

  1. 1Open your flow and press Test. A chat opens next to the canvas (full screen on a phone). Nothing is sent to anyone and nothing is saved.
  2. 2Pick the platform to test on. The chat takes that app's look, and the messages arrive the way that platform shows them.
  3. 3Send the first message like a customer would — tap one of the trigger's keywords to start.
  4. 4Answer it: tap buttons and quick replies, pick menu options, type answers to questions. Wrong answers are asked again, just like live.
  5. 5Switch platform at any moment: the same conversation replays on the new one, so you can compare WhatsApp and Instagram side by side.
  6. 6Edit a block on the canvas while the test is open — the chat updates straight away.
  • Yellow notes under a message show what that platform changes: a label cut to 20 characters, more than 3 buttons sent as a numbered list on WhatsApp, no buttons at all on TikTok, X and Reddit, a message longer than the platform allows.
  • Waits: a Delay shows a “Skip the wait” button; a Smart delay can be answered or timed out.
  • Steps that use your live data — booking, taking an order, order status and web requests — let you choose what happens (for example “Booked” or “No free times”), so you can walk every branch.
  • The person icon sets the pretend customer: tags and saved details your conditions check. The flow's own tags and answers are added as you go.
  • The steps button lists every block the chat passed through. Tap one to find it on the canvas.
  • An AI step that hands the chat to one of your agents can write a real reply from the test — it uses your free test credits.
