Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

If a non-repeating automation rule has matched 100 prospects, and a user pauses the automation rule, edits the rules criteria, and resumes the rule, the 100 prospects who previously matched the rule will be marked as unmatching the updated rule.This means that they will not receive any new actions from the rule, and any actions that were already applied to them will not be undone11.However, if the rule is set to repeat, the prospects who previously matched the rule can match the rule again if they meet the new criteria

I believe C is correct. They should unapply actions for those who don't match anymore.

So, if they change the criteria, do the old prospects just disappear?

I thought I read that when you edit and resume a rule, it could cause some prospects to be unmarked. So, D seems possible too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like if some prospects no longer match the new criteria, they might get unmarked. Maybe C?

I remember a similar question where changing criteria meant actions would reapply. So, could it be B?

I think if the rule is paused and then edited, the prospects that matched before might not be affected. So, maybe A?
