Embedded Signup Flow Errors

This guide helps you get acquainted with the different errors that may arise as you embed the signup flow in your website or client portal.

Abandoned Flow Screens

If a business customer prematurely abandons the Embedded Signup flow, we will send a message event to the browser that spawned the flow, that indicates which screen the customer was viewing when they abandoned the flow.

The data.current_step property value indicates which screen the customer abandoned:

    current_step: "<CURRENT_STEP>",
  },
  type: "WA_EMBEDDED_SIGNUP",
  event: "CANCEL",
  version: 3
}
