Import from Neurons (Feature)
If you have previously created workflows in Neurons (Feature) before the introduction of Neurons Bots, you have the option to import them.
You can only import one Neuron at a time, because each stage needs to be converted to the equivalent stage in Neurons Bots and may need some settings updated. If this is the case, you will receive a message to inform you of which stages need updating and why.
