Journey Create journey-create
Journey Create enables Journey Optimizer users to build and configure marketing journeys using a natural language interface. With Journey Create, practitioners can quickly create journeys by describing their requirements in conversational prompts. The skill walks users through the different options for creating a journey, allowing marketers to focus on strategy rather than technical configuration.
Key use cases
Journey Create offers capabilities that can be leveraged to accelerate marketing execution:
With this skill, natural language requirements are translated into structured journey configurations.
Prompting best practices
To maximize the effectiveness of Journey Create, follow these best practices:
- Be Specific: Provide clear details about your journey goals, target audience, and desired actions. Include information about channels, timing, and conditions.
- Specify Timing: Clearly indicate wait periods between actions and when the journey should start.
- Define Conditions: When using conditional logic, explain the criteria for each branch path.
- Include Channels: Specify which communication channels you want to use (push, email, mobile message).
- Mention Scheduling: For scheduled journeys, provide the desired start date and time.
- Custom Actions: If you are using custom actions in your workflow you need to specify that you are using a custom action along with the exact name of the custom action. Example:
When a user enters my store location send a welcome message using custom action ExternalPush. Wait 2 days and then send a follow up message using custom action ExternalEmail with a survey on their visit. - Validate Expressions: Make sure to check and validate any expressions that Journey Skills create to ensure that the correct fields and values are used.
Out of scope skills
The following functionalities are currently not supported:
- Advanced journey analytics
- Cross-journey orchestration
- A/B testing configuration
- InAudience expression generation
- Dataset lookup nodes
- Wave sending settings
- Schedule recurrence options
- Namespace selection for audiences
- Custom Action field mapping
- Complex data transformations
Setup best practices
- Define Clear Objectives: Before creating journeys, establish clear goals (improving retention, driving conversions, increasing engagement).
- Prepare Audiences: Ensure your target audiences are already created and properly segmented.
- Plan Message Content: Have your messaging strategy defined before journey creation.
- Consider Customer Experience: Design journey flows that respect customer preferences and avoid over-communication.
Channel Content Create channel-content-create
Channel Content Create enables Journey Optimizer users to generate, edit, and manage channel-specific content for journeys using AI-powered content generation.
Key use cases
Prompting best practices
- Be Specific: Provide clear details about the content type, tone, target audience, and key messaging.
- Specify Channel: Clearly indicate which channel you are creating content for (email, push, mobile message).
- Define Tone: Specify the desired tone (friendly, formal, casual, urgent).
- Iterate and Refine: Use the regenerate action to refine content until it meets your requirements.
Journey Analyze journey-analyze
Journey Skills will enable Journey Optimizer users to analyze and optimize journeys using a natural language interface. With Journey Skills, practitioners can quickly identify and resolve schedule and/or audience conflicts, detect points of user abandonment in a journey and provide insights or recommendations. It empowers practitioners to make data-driven decisions, improve customer engagement, and streamline journey orchestration.
Key use cases
Journey Analyze offers a range of functionalities that can be leveraged to optimize marketing efforts:
Prompting best practices
To maximize the effectiveness of Journey Analyze, follow these best practices:
- Be Specific: Use clear and concise prompts to get targeted insights. For example, instead of asking “What are my journeys?”, specify “List all journeys created in the last month.”
- Combine Insights: Integrate insights from Audience and Data Insights capabilities for a holistic view of journey performance.
- Iterative Refinement: Use fallout and overlap analysis to iteratively refine journey design and scheduling.
Setup best practices
- Define Clear Objectives: Before analyzing journeys, establish clear goals (e.g., improving retention, increasing conversions).
- Monitor Regularly: Schedule regular reviews of journey performance to identify trends and anomalies.
- Optimize Segmentation: Ensure audience segmentation is balanced to avoid fatigue and maximize engagement.
Journey Simulation journey-simulation
Journey Simulation skill brings AI-driven Quick Simulation into the chat interface, letting users validate a journey’s logic conversationally. Through Coworker, users can generate simulated test data, run and manage a simulation, and review the results.
Key use cases
Limitations
This feature currently only supports the Quick Simulation flow, and does not fully replace the Journey Optimizer manual simulation experience. Use Quick Simulation for a fast, automated sanity check of a journey’s logic. For granular control over simulated users and scenarios, use the manual simulation experience in Journey Optimizer.
As part of this Quick Simulation experience, users cannot:
- Choose an existing saved simulated user for a run.
- Edit a simulated user before rerunning a simulation.
- Create, browse, update, or delete persistent simulated users through chat.
- Target a specific path or custom test case.
This section contains structured knowledge intended to support interpretation, retrieval, and question answering related to this topic.
For complete understanding, this information should be combined with the documentation on this page. Neither source is intended to stand alone; the page describes the feature, while this section provides additional context that helps disambiguate terminology, intent, applicability, and constraints.
- TL;DR: This page documents four Adobe CX Enterprise Coworker skills for Adobe Journey Optimizer journeys — Journey Create, Channel Content Create, Journey Analyze, and Journey Simulation — plus the Compare journey versions tool, with their use cases, scope, prompting guidance, and limitations.
Intents
- Build and configure journeys from natural language prompts or uploaded images using Journey Create.
- Generate, edit, and refine channel-specific content for journeys using Channel Content Create.

Terminology
- Synonyms: “Journey Analyze” = “Journey Skills” — the page introduces the Journey Analyze section using the term “Journey Skills” to refer to the same capability.
- Do not confuse: “Journey Create” (builds new journeys) is not the same skill as “Journey Analyze” (analyzes and optimizes existing journeys) or “Channel Content Create” (generates channel content for journeys) — each is a distinct Coworker skill on this page.
- Do not confuse: Quick Simulation is a fast, automated sanity check; it does not replace the manual simulation experience for granular control over simulated users and scenarios.
