​
Overview

Updates the configuration of a step in your campaign sequence. You can modify the delay between steps and set a generic message template.

​
Updatable Fields

​
delay

The number of days to wait before executing this step after the previous one completes. Example: If step 1 is an invitation and step 2 is a message with delay: 3, the message will be sent 3 days after the invitation is accepted.

​
genericBody

A generic message template that can be used as a fallback or default for the step. This is particularly useful for:
  • Setting a base message that variants can build upon
  • Providing a default when all variants are disabled
  • Documenting the intended message purpose

​
Request Body

You can update one or both fields: 
{
  "delay": 5,
  "genericBody": "Hi {{firstName}}, thanks for connecting!"
}

​
Variable Support

The genericBody field supports WaLead template variables:
  • Core variables: {{firstName}}, {{lastName}}, {{companyName}}, etc.
  • Custom variables: Any custom fields you’ve defined for your leads

​
Use Cases

  • Adjust timing between steps based on campaign performance
  • Set fallback messages for steps with multiple variants
  • Quickly modify delays without recreating the entire sequence
