Email Campaign Statuses in Sparkforge

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

Sparkforge email campaigns show statuses to tell you exactly where each send is. Email Campaigns, Workflow Campaigns, and Bulk Action Campaigns each use a slightly different set.

Every Sparkforge email campaign carries a status that tells you whether it's still being built, on its way out, or finished. The exact list varies by campaign type.

Email Campaign statuses

Email Campaigns are one-time or recurring sends you create manually.

Status	What it means
Draft	The campaign is being built. Edit content or schedule before sending.
Sent	The campaign was delivered. View opens, clicks, and other metrics under Statistics.
Failed	The send failed (invalid sender, configuration error). Fix the setup and retry.
Archived	Manually archived to clear it from the active list. Restore any time.
All	Shows every campaign regardless of status.

Workflow Campaign statuses

Workflow Campaigns are automated sequences triggered by workflow actions.

Status	What it means
Draft	Created but not yet activated. Edit triggers, emails, or actions.
Published	Live and running. Contacts entering the workflow receive the emails.
All	Shows draft and published workflow campaigns.

Bulk Action Campaign statuses

Bulk Action Campaigns send mass emails to a contact list, instantly or in scheduled batches.

Status	What it means
Draft	Setup is incomplete or waiting to be scheduled.
Queued	Scheduled and waiting to start sending.
Sending	Currently delivering to recipients in batches.
Sent	All recipients have been processed.
Failed	The campaign hit an error. Review the setup and retry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Failed mean on an email campaign?

The send couldn't complete due to a setup issue, like an invalid sender email or a deliverability config problem. Open the campaign, fix the cause, and retry.

Can I restore an archived campaign?

Yes. Archived campaigns aren't deleted. Open the Archived view and restore the campaign back to its prior status.

Why is my workflow campaign stuck on Draft?

It hasn't been published. Open the campaign and click Publish to make it live so contacts entering the workflow receive the emails.

What's the difference between Sent and Sending?

Sending means the bulk action is actively pushing emails out. Sent means delivery is complete and metrics are available.
