This article explains how to configure additional or flexible coaching sessions for participants in Momenta. While CoachOS used to support direct participant-level custom sessions, this functionality is no longer available due to the shift to Momenta as the front-end. You must now configure sessions at the journey or cohort level. This article provides options and important system considerations.
What Changed with Momenta-Coach Integration?
- Previously: Coaches could extend individual pathways directly in CoachOS
- Now: All coaching sessions must be predefined at the journey level in Momenta
- Flexible session additions must be handled using separate journeys or cohorts, not per-user customization
System Functionality & Considerations
- Sessions added directly in CoachOS will not appear in Momenta
- Participants won't see coach availability or be able to cancel/reschedule sessions not linked to Momenta
- Blueprinting (Momenta) and Greying Out (CoachOS) do not sync
- Blueprinting controls what sessions are visible on Momenta
- Greying out controls booking ability in CoachOS
- My Coaching tab shows all session activities—even if blueprinting is applied
- Greyed-out sessions still appear in Momenta but will produce an error when clicked
Information You Need Before Configuring
- Will all users receive the same number of sessions or will this vary?
- Do you know the maximum number of additional sessions approved?
- Will session approvals be done case-by-case, or in bulk?
- What are the billing implications? (e.g., PO approval per participant)
- What is the average session duration?
Option 1: Journeys for Each Number of Sessions
Use this when:
- You expect participants to stick to their assigned number of sessions
- You want to avoid greying out or removing My Coaching tabs
Steps:
- Create a separate journey for each configuration (e.g., one with 4 sessions, one with 6)
- Add placeholders for each flexible coaching session
- Publish the journeys to generate corresponding CoachOS programs
- Create cohorts and upload participants to the correct journey
- Participants select their journey from the dropdown in Momenta
Tip: If a participant needs more sessions later, assign them to a new journey with the additional sessions—they will then see multiple journeys in their dropdown.
Option 2: Cohorts for Each Number of Sessions
Use this when:
- You expect frequent changes in the number of sessions
- You prefer to manage sessions without creating multiple journeys
Steps:
- Create one journey with the maximum number of sessions needed
- Blueprint out all but the first session by default
- Remove the My Coaching tab from the menu
- Create separate cohorts for each session count (e.g., 1 to 6)
- Blueprint the correct number of sessions for each cohort
- Assign users to the correct cohort
- Optional: Grey out additional sessions in CoachOS pathway for each user
When a user’s session count changes:
- Move them to the correct cohort in both Momenta and CoachOS
- Un-greyout any newly unlocked sessions in CoachOS
Pros:
- Less friction for the user (one journey)
- Keeps coaching notes in a single pathway
Cons:
- My Coaching tab must be disabled
- Manual cohort management required across both platforms
