# Create or replace a campaign's drip steps

> Replaces the full drip-step sequence for a campaign in one call. Post an ordered `steps` array (1–50 steps); each step sets a send delay, channel, message template, optional email subject, and an optional condition that gates the step on the previous step's outcome. If the campaign was not already a drip campaign it is converted to one. Steps sent without an `id` are assigned one on save. Returns the normalized step list.
