Drafts let you write Moments when inspiration strikes and share them when you're ready. Perfect your content, fix typos and ensure important recognition never gets forgotten.

What Are Moment Drafts?

Moment Drafts allow you to:

  • Save incomplete Moments to finish later

  • Perfect your content before sharing

  • Capture ideas when they're fresh in your mind

  • Never miss recognising great work due to busy schedules

  • Fix typos and improve wording before posting


How to Save a Draft

While Creating a Moment

  • Start writing your Moment as normal

  • Add your content, tags, images, or other elements

  • When you're not ready to share, click the X in the corner

  • Select Save as draft from the prompt

  • Your Moment is saved for later editing

You can then view your draft at a later date by opening to create a moment and then clicking "Drafts".

What Gets Saved in Drafts

Your draft will include:

  • Message content and text

  • Tagged colleagues (@mentions)

  • Images, videos, GIFs, or cards

  • Company values selections

  • Personal Lists selections

What Doesn't Get Saved

You'll need to set these again when you're ready to post:

  • Rewards (if you have spending pot access)

  • Manager notifications

  • Visibility settings (public or private)

Why? These settings are considered final posting decisions and need to be confirmed when you actually share the Moment.

Common Draft Scenarios

Quick Capture

  • Save a quick draft with their name and key achievement

  • Perfect the wording later when you have more time

Complex Recognition

  • Team completes major project

  • Draft with all team members tagged

  • Return later to add specific contributions and impact details

Batch Recognition

  • Multiple achievements happen in one day

  • Save several drafts

  • Complete and post them throughout the week for better timing

Perfectionist Approach

  • Want to ensure recognition is well-written

  • Save draft and return with fresh perspective

  • Edit until you're completely satisfied


Troubleshooting

Can't find my draft?

  • Check the Drafts section from your homepage

  • Make sure you clicked "Save as draft" when exiting

  • Drafts may take a moment to appear

Draft lost some content?

  • Remember that rewards, manager notifications, and visibility settings aren't saved

  • Check that you selected "Save as draft" rather than just closing

Can't edit my draft?

  • Ensure you're clicking "Edit" not just viewing

  • Try refreshing the page

  • Contact support if issues persist

Draft won't publish?

  • Make sure you've set all required posting settings

  • Check that tagged colleagues are still valid

  • Ensure you have necessary permissions


Tips for Success

Don't Overthink: Drafts are meant to capture ideas quickly - perfect them later

Set Reminders: Check your drafts regularly so recognition stays timely

Keep It Simple: Use drafts for content, not for complex workflow management

Stay Organised: Delete old drafts to keep your list manageable
