1. Navigate to the cadence you want to edit.
2. Click **Modify Steps**.
3. In the Cadence Builder, make the needed changes.
    
    When deleting a call result or email listener step, you can choose whether to delete the Yes or the No branch that follows it. Targets currently on deleted steps exit the cadence after completing the step.
4. When you are finished making changes to a step, click **Save** on the step.
5. When you are finished making changes, click **Update**. Your changes take effect immediately.
    
    If you close the Cadence Builder before clicking **Update**, your changes are lost.
