Create guided, interactive checklists to drive onboarding, feature adoption, and ongoing success inside your product.

Before you start

  • Define the goal for the checklist (e.g., complete onboarding, adopt a feature)

  • List the key steps users must take to achieve the goal

  • Identify any success criteria or tracking events

Create a new checklist

  1. Go to Checklists in your Userorbit admin dashboard.

  2. Click New checklist.

  3. Name your checklist and add a short description.

  4. Choose the default audience or leave it open for now.

Add and organize steps

  1. Click Add step to create a new item.

  2. Provide a clear title and optional description.

  3. Choose a completion condition:

    • Manual mark as complete

    • Event-based (e.g., user performed action)

    • Property-based (e.g., plan == Pro)

  4. Reorder steps by dragging to set the ideal sequence.

Configure behaviors

  • Auto-open behavior (on first login, on specific pages)

  • Allow users to collapse/dismiss

  • Restrict to desktop or mobile

  • Completion celebration and follow-up actions

Preview and publish

  1. Click Preview to test the checklist experience.

  2. Validate step completion logic and ordering.

  3. Click Publish to make the checklist available.

Best practices

  • Keep step titles short and action-oriented

  • Aim for 3–7 steps per checklist

  • Use clear completion criteria to reduce confusion

  • Group advanced steps into a separate checklist

Troubleshooting

  • Steps not completing: verify event/property conditions and spelling

  • Checklist not visible: check audience targeting and publish status

  • Wrong order: drag to reorder and republish
