Lifecycle at a glance
States
Draft
A draft gig is still being prepared. Use drafts while details are incomplete or while you are reviewing a gig created from a template. Drafts are useful before:- Sending invitations
- Requesting availability
- Finalizing crew
- Sharing setlists or tasks
- Confirming payment details
Active
An active gig is ready for normal gig workflows. Once active, you can use notification and invitation actions, manage team assignments, track resources, and continue operational work.Template
A template is a reusable gig structure. Templates are created from existing gigs and are used to create new draft gigs. Templates are best for recurring event formats, repeat clients, standard production packages, or any show type with a familiar structure.Template access depends on the
gig-templates feature flag. Contact support if you expect to see templates but do not.Transition matrix

| New gig to Draft | Create as draft or use a template | Creates a draft gig for review |
| New gig to Active | Create without saving as draft | Creates an active gig |
