Step 2: Take one final look-over of the checklist, and see if you want to make any last changes. After this, press Go Live! Submissions on your advocacy action will now be sent to your targets!

If you'd like to return to test mode, select Return to Test Mode under the Actions header on the Preview page

 

Make sure you embed your action on a web page so your supporters can use it!

Retire your Action to a Sign-up Form

Once your campaign is finished, you have the ability to retire your action to either a sign-up form or an archived action. In both cases, retired actions keep all their submissions and associated data.

Retiring your action to a signup form converts your action to a basic form in which supporters enter their Name Email Address to be added to your mailing list.

Step 1: First, you'll want to navigate to the right sidebar on the Preview page, and in the Actions section select Retire Action.

Step 2: Select Sign-up Form from the How would you like your action to be retired dropdown menu.
