Short answer

This guide provides ready-to-use prompts for the AI workflow builder. Copy any example, adapt it to your use case, and paste it into the chat. The AI handles the rest — creating steps, connecting the flow, and applying styles.

Quick summary

  • Prompt examples organized by use case: forms, redirects, conditions, styling, and full workflows
  • Tips on how to structure requests for the best results
  • Examples of compound prompts that accomplish multiple things at once
  • Common patterns for business use cases

Basic operations

Changing a redirect

JavaScript
Change the redirect destination to https://mywebsite.com/landing
JavaScript
Update the redirection URL to google.fr

Adding a form

JavaScript
Add a form that collects email address before the redirect
JavaScript
Add a form with first name, last name, email, and phone number. Place it before the redirection.
JavaScript
Create a feedback form with a rating field and a comment textarea

Adding a password gate

JavaScript
Add a password step before the redirect with the password "welcome2026"
JavaScript
Protect this link with a password gate. The password should be "VIP-access" and the title should say "Members Only"

Adding a contact card

JavaScript
Replace the redirect with a contact card for John Smith, email [email protected], phone +1-555-0123, company Acme Inc, title CEO
JavaScript
Add a multi-link page with three buttons: "Product A", "Product B", and "Contact Us"

Conditions and routing

Country-based routing

JavaScript
Add a country condition after the link visit. Route visitors from the US to one redirect and everyone else to another redirect with the fallback URL
JavaScript
Route French visitors to https://fr.mysite.com and German visitors to https://de.mysite.com, everyone else goes to https://en.mysite.com

Device-based routing

JavaScript
Add a device type condition. Send mobile visitors to the app download page at https://app.example.com and desktop visitors to the regular website
JavaScript
Route iOS users to the App Store link and Android users to the Play Store link

Time-based routing

JavaScript
Add a time condition. During business hours (9am to 6pm) show a contact form, outside of business hours redirect to the website
JavaScript
Show different content on weekdays vs weekends. Weekdays show the form, weekends redirect to the blog

Visit type routing

JavaScript
Add a condition for new vs returning visitors. First-time visitors see a welcome form, returning visitors go straight to the content

Styling and themes

Applying a color theme

JavaScript
Apply a pink theme to this link's pages
JavaScript
Make the pages dark themed — dark background with a red accent color
JavaScript
Use an ocean blue gradient for the background and blue buttons

Specific color requests

JavaScript
Set the page background to a gradient from purple to blue, and make the buttons bright green
JavaScript
I want a clean white theme with the company color #2563eb for the buttons

Compound requests

The AI handles multiple instructions in a single message. These are the most powerful prompts:

Lead capture funnel

JavaScript
Build a lead capture flow: add a form with first name, last name, and email before the redirect. Change the redirect to https://thank-you.example.com. Apply a clean blue theme.

Event registration

JavaScript
Create a registration workflow. First a form asking for full name, email, and a dropdown field "Session" with options "Morning Workshop", "Afternoon Talk", and "Full Day". After the form, redirect to the calendar invite page at https://events.example.com/confirm

Gated content

JavaScript
Add a password gate with password "exclusive2026" and title "Premium Content". After the password, show a form collecting email. After the form, redirect to the content page. Use a dark theme for the pages.

Multi-audience landing

JavaScript
Set up a country condition after the link visit. US visitors see a form asking for email and company name, then redirect to https://us.sales.example.com. EU visitors redirect directly to https://eu.example.com. Everyone else goes to https://global.example.com

Contact card sharing

JavaScript
Replace the current redirect with a contact card for Jane Doe. Email: [email protected], phone: +44-20-1234-5678, company: Company Ltd, title: Head of Partnerships, website: https://company.com

Tips for writing effective prompts

Be explicit about the flow order

Say "add X before the redirect" or "add X after the form" to make it clear where in the flow the new step should go.

Name your fields

Instead of "add a form with some fields," list exactly what you want: "add a form with email, phone number, and a textarea for comments."

Combine actions naturally

You can mix step creation, editing, and styling in one message. The AI processes them in the right order.

Iterate in conversation

You don't need to get everything right in one prompt. Start with the structure, then refine:

  1. "Add a form with email before the redirect"
  2. "Also add a first name field to the form"
  3. "Make the pages use a blue theme"

Reference existing steps naturally

You don't need IDs or technical names. Say "the form," "the redirect," "the password step" — the assistant identifies them from context.

How far can you go?

The AI workflow builder can handle any workflow you could build manually in the visual editor. It can:

  • Create any combination of steps (forms, redirects, passwords, conditions, contact cards, multi-links, social pages)
  • Wire complex flows with multiple branches and conditions
  • Apply visual themes with custom colors and presets
  • Modify existing workflows incrementally
  • Handle multi-step compound requests in a single message

For advanced customization beyond what the AI builder covers (QR code design, badge images, cover photos), use the dedicated editors accessible from the workflow top bar.
