Purpose: This guide covers how to set up Goals in Kizen Automations. Goals are similar to Triggers but require a specific event to occur before the automation proceeds. By using Goals, you can create flexible paths for records based on whether a goal is met, allowing automations to wait for specific actions before continuous

Goals Overview
Goals are similar to Triggers. With goals, your Automation will wait until something happens and won't continue down the path immediately, like when using a Condition.
The record will be assessed as Goal Met or Goal Not Met, when they reach the Goal Step in your Automation. When reaching the Goal Step, the automation will only go down one path. You can always setup a second Goal if multiple need to be met.
Types of Goals
There are various goal types that can be selected in the Goal Step.
Activities
Activity Logged - When a particular activity is logged (or not logged) the automation will continue.
1. Choose Activity
2. Proceed Down "Not Met" Path After
3. Click Save
Hint: A common example of using activity logged goal steps is a sales team member logging a Call Activity. If they don't log a call activity with a prospect within a certain timeframe, the sales team member (or their manager) can be notified

You can choose between First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Company, or any of the custom fields created in your account.
