Step information
The Step Information feature allows you to add additional context like titles, descriptions, and external links to individual steps in your guideflow without cluttering the main Call-to-Action text.
When to use Step Information
Step Information is ideal when you need to:
Provide additional context about a specific step
Add explanatory text that doesn't belong in the Call-to-Action
Include reference links to documentation, Google Drive, or other resources
Give descriptive titles to steps for better navigation and organization
The published Step Information will appear beneath your demo on public Guideflow links.
How to add Step Information to your guideflow
In the Editor:
Open your guideflow in the editor
Navigate to the step where you want to add information

Autoplay: Auto advance the step forward without clicking on Call-to-Actions (go to Browserif you need to set Autoplay to the entire guideflow at once
Best practices
Keep step titles concise but descriptive
Use descriptions to provide context that would be too lengthy for the main Call-to-Action
Include relevant URLs that help users understand the step better or provide additional resources
Consider your audience when deciding what information to include in Step Information versus the main content in Call-to-Actions inside the demo
