When you change conditions or rules on a list, People automatically pauses any active automations for that list to prevent them from running on incorrect results. However, there was no indication that editing conditions or rules would cause this to happen, and we heard from many of you wondering why automations were suddenly paused on lists you manage.
We now display an alert whenever you’re about to click “Save” on the rules page on a list with active automations:
We hope this makes managing your lists feel more predictable and transparent. You’re always in control—and now you’ll know exactly when automations are affected.
