SMS Templates

Creating Templates for SMSes has been made super simple with Fyno's template feature.

Clicking on SMS, you can:

  1. Have an overview of your message details such as encoding type, length of the message (character count) per part, and credits being used.
  2. You can enter the content of the message in the SMS template.
  3. Create Text, Unicode or Flash (checkboxes to select) messages.
    1. Text: Plain text default option, where the content of the message is in simple keyboard text.
    2. Unicode:Unicode SMS allows you to send messages in any foreign and regional language other than English
    3. Flash:A flash message appears on the mobile device’s screen, without having to access the SMS storage application on the device.
  4. Enter the DLT template ID for Indian Customers.
  5. Placeholders: Below the "Channels" section on the left, you can find placeholders. Placeholders are denoted by {{}} or Handlebars. You may define the parameters of Placeholders by clicking on it, which opens up a pop-up window where you can define them. Check out this comprehensive guide on how to use "Handlebars"
  6. Review your content and take a look at what your message would look like in the Preview section on the right.
  7. Save & Save and Promote: Save and create different versions of the templates by hitting Save which will be Test versions. Use Save & Promote when you are ready to move your template into the "Live" version.
