1:1 Texting allows clients to send a text to a single phone number without creating or launching a campaign.
Before you create a 1:1 text make sure that you have a reusable phone number that you have assigned access to in the Unsolicited Message Inbox settings.
The 1:1 text will appear for any agent/inbox assigned to the Unsolicited Message Inbox settings for the reusable phone number.
Only users with Texting - Administrative and Texting - Standard roles can initiate a 1:1 Text. Texting - Limited users can interact with existing 1:1 Texts in their Inbox.
To initiate a 1:1 text, from the homepage, click on the Create Content icon at the top right of the page:
Click Create 1:1 Text:
Select the "From" phone number from the dropdown. You will only be able to select a reusable phone number that you have access to.
Enter the 10-digit phone number (with or without hyphens) of the end-user you want to send a text to.
Enter the message you want to send to the end-user and click Send.
Once you click send, you will be routed to your inbox where you will be able to manage the conversation.
The conversation will appear on the Participating tab until the end-user responds. Then it will be moved to the Needs Attention tab. Bot-backed conversations will appear in the Participating tab of any associated agents listed in the Unsolicited Message Settings.
The Contact Name will appear if the contact was included in a previously launched campaign.
If the contact wasn't included in a previously launched campaign, the Contact Name field will display the contact's phone number only.
