Study Notes

Identifying When to Use Prompts and Walkthroughs

Prompts and walkthroughs are useful for onboarding, feature adoption, discovery, and deeper learning scenarios.
Features refer to a wide range of complexity, accessibility, and longevity.

Suitable Use Cases

Prompts and walkthroughs work best when:
- You have something short and helpful to say.
- You want to quickly call attention to something new, interesting, or important.
- Helping users quickly absorb and acknowledge information and continue with their workflow.

Unsuitable Use Cases

Prompts and walkthroughs are less effective when:
- You have lots of information to share.
- You need to explain prerequisites or establish context.

Considering Your Audience

Users have varying experience levels, educational backgrounds, assumptions, and jobs to do.
Considerations can help develop prompts and walkthroughs that support multiple types of users.

Prompt vs Walkthrough

A prompt is a single, small window that directs users' attention to a feature, update, or call to action.
A walkthrough is a series of connected prompts that provide a step-by-step, guided experience across a single page or multiple pages for in-context learning.

Types of Prompts

Prompts come in three flavors: floating, targeted, and docked.
Choose the appropriate prompt type depending on the use case:
- Floating prompt: non-intrusive, short and sweet message, ideal for most steps of a walkthrough.
- Targeted prompt: connects to a specific page element, shows users exactly what you're referring to.
- Docked prompt: stays in place as the user navigates, ideal for content that needs to remain on screen, such as step-by-step instructions.
