I know there is a capability to edit an email template per contact in a scheduled sequence, but is there a capability (or is there a capability in progress) to do a mass template update across all contacts? Why won’t any content updates made in the source template (in Conversations - Templates) pull over to the scheduled sequence also without editing each enrolled contact?

Hi @emclean

The new updated sequence will only be updated for folks that are newly enrolled. There are a few things you can do here:

1. Update the email in the scheduled section of the sequence (this is good if you only need to update for a few contacts – which you seem to already be aware of)

2. Unenroll contacts and re-enroll them starting at a particular step – for instance if everyone has already received emails 1& 2 you can start everyone on email 3 (this is good if you need to do a mass update)

to enroll from a particular step do your enrollment per usual (whether that is contact by contact or from a list). When you are in the enrollment pop-up box click on the drop-down labeled “start at” next to the time zone drop down. You’ll be able to choose the starting point from there.

I’m linking the knowledge base article [HERE](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/sequences/what-happens-to-enrolled-contacts-when-i-delete-or-edit-an-active-sequence#:~:text=In%20your%20HubSpot%20account%2C%20navigate,the%20email%20and%20click%20Edit.)

Hope this helps!

Best,

Diana

It would be super helpful if you could make changes to a sequence and those already enrolled would get the updated sequence rather than having to unenroll and enroll again.
