Why do I see the same customer twice in My Leads?

Each time a customer goes through an automation from the start, My Leads gets a new entry. Seeing the same customer more than once usually means they made a new request, or came back after a long break.

When a new entry is created

  • While a run is in progress, every answer goes into the same entry. One conversation does not create one entry per answer.
  • After a run is completed, a short reply like "Thanks" or "Sure!" does not start a new one. Only new customer messages that clearly match a trigger again can start a new run.
  • A new run starts with empty fields. It does not copy answers from the earlier entry.

Common reasons for two entries

  • The customer made a genuinely new request later, for example a second order. This is a new lead on purpose.
  • The customer stopped answering and came back more than 7 days later. The old entry is marked Abandoned and a fresh entry starts.
  • You paused the automation while the customer was in the middle of it. That entry shows as Abandoned.
  • The customer matched two different automations at different times. Each automation keeps its own entries.

What the statuses mean

  • Completed: every required field has a value.
  • In progress: the AI is still collecting details.
  • Abandoned: the run stopped before it was finished. The details it collected are kept.

Common questions

Can I delete a duplicate entry?

My Leads does not have a delete option today. You can filter by Completed, or remove the extra rows after you export to CSV.

Why did a customer's first entry stay In progress?

They have not answered every required field yet. The AI asks each required field at most twice, then saves "Not provided", so a run finishes once the customer keeps replying.
