Previously, you had to publish your Story before events from the outside world – like responding to webhooks or emails – would flow through it. These events would be “held” in a pending queue, requiring button clicks to get them to flow, which added friction and frustration.

Now, things are simpler: everything flows automatically while you’re working on (or just viewing) an unpublished story. Then, once you’re ready for the Story to run autonomously in the background, just hit publish.
