Simulate your journey simulate-journey

From your Journey, open Simulate and choose Simulation.

Click Create Simulated Users to create new users and select whether to create users from the UI or import them from JSON.

To reuse simulated users instead, click Select simulated users and choose entries you saved earlier.

If you create simulated users from JSON, update the corresponding fields with your simulated user data.

If you create simulated users from UI, enter a Display name and Description to identify this simulated user. Then, select the attributes from the Union schema that you want to populate for this user.

Click add Audience membership to simulate segment memberships.

Click Add profile to create multiple simulated users in a single session.

For each simulated user you added in this session, you can use the following actions:

• Duplicate: Adds a new simulated user that replicates the completed configuration of an existing entry, you can then edit the duplicate as needed.
• Apply to all: Propagates the attribute values or settings from one simulated user to every other simulated user in the list.
• Delete: Removes the selected simulated user from the list.

Click Save to store one or more simulated users for future use.

After you save, the simulated users you created appear in the Test users list. For each entry, open the options menu and select one of the following:

• : Update the simulated user’s details.
• : Run the simulation for this simulated user only.
• : Remove the user from this list. The simulated user is not deleted and remains available in the Simulated Users selection.

If your journey includes a Wait activity, open the Test settings tab to fine-tune how long that wait lasts during the simulation.

Click Send all to send every simulated users in the list into the journey. A Simulated users have been sent successfully. confirmation message appears when the simulated users successfully enter the journey.

Access the Results tab to open the execution log and review how each step ran. For more information, see View Results.

Set the journey to Simulation. Open the Simulate entry point and choose Simulation so the journey uses the Simulation feature, for example alongside Test mode or Live, depending on your workspace.

In the Simulation settings panel, you can either select previously created simulated users clicking Select simulated users.

Select from the list of simulated users that were previously created and saved.

Once you have selected your simulated users, they are now available in the Test users list. From the options menu, choose between the following option:

• to edit users and change its details.
• to send your simulation to only one simulated user.
• to clear your simulated users from the list. Note that clearing it does not delete it, it can still be selectable from the Simulated users list.

Click Send all to send every simulated users in the list into the journey. A Simulated users entered the journey successfully. confirmation message appears when the simulated users successfully enter the journey.

Access the Results tab to open the execution log and review how each step ran. For more information, see View Results.

In Select event type, select the event to fire for this simulation.

Click Configure events to open the editor and adjust the event as needed. To change the payload for a specific simulated user only, click beside that user.

In the Trigger event view, specify which simulated users to include in the execution. Event configuration applies to a single event at a time. Modifying the selected event or the set of included users resets previously entered field values. Complete the current configuration before changing either selection.

Click Done.

Then, in Test events, either select Send all to send every simulated user listed under Test users into the journey, or select for a single user to execute the simulation for that user only.

Access the Results tab to open the execution log and review how each step ran. For more information, see View Results.
