Templates
Message templates can serve as a valuable tool to initiate conversations with users. Text-based templates can be accessed within the provider's configuration window and employed within the inbox alongside canned responses. In this process, it is essential to replace the placeholders with the specific values required as variables.
Synchronize: Clicking this button will fetch all the approved text-type templates associated with the account. Once the synchronization process is successful, campaign members can utilize these templates as canned responses.
Delete: This button is used to permanently remove all templates from the provider's in uContact.
