Step 1: Initiate Merlin AI Assist
You can access the AI assistant at the start of your creation process:- On the left navigation menu in the MoEngage UI, click Engage > Flow.
- On the Create flow page, enter your prompt in the Create using Merlin AI Flow Assist field. You can also choose from the available sample prompts.

Step 2: Define Your Flow (The Prompt)
Currently, AI-generated flows default the target audience to All Users. Ensure you review the “Who will enter the flow” section to apply specific segment filters if needed.
- Enter your prompt: Describe the trigger, the sequence of actions, and the goals. Example: Build a flow to improve Product Purchase by 15% for users who Added to Cart but didn’t buy. Use Email and Push, with a 24-hour delay between them.
- Clarification: If your prompt is ambiguous (for example, you mention “purchase” but have multiple purchase events), Merlin AI asks follow-up questions to ensure the flow is technically accurate.
- Review the Strategy: Merlin AI explains the logic it intends to build. Review this summary carefully.

Step 3: Design on Canvas
After confirming the logic, Merlin AI translates the conversation into a visual structure.- Edit in Canvas: Click the button to populate the stages onto the MoEngage Canvas.
- Manual Adjustments: You can still manually drag, drop, or delete stages once they appear.
- Configure Content: Merlin AI builds the structure, but you must click each Action Stage (Email, Push, etc.) to select your specific message templates and creative content.
Step 4: Configure Flow Details and Goals
Even when using AI, you must ensure the flow’s metadata and tracking are correctly configured. Click the Settings icon on the canvas to verify:- Flow Details: Enter a name for the flow (minimum 5 characters) and select up to five flow tags.
- Conversion Goals: Define success (for example, Event: Product Purchased). You can add up to five goals.
- Flow Controls: Enable Control Groups to accurately measure uplift.
