Text Messages: Added the ability to add new students to opened campaigns

Locations:  

  • Send Text Message page
  • Create or Update Text Message Campaign page


Users with the following permissions

  • Text Messages: View Student Text Messages

Users have to send some identical messages to a number of leads/students every day (e.g., welcome messages for the new leads).

This requires sending such messages to every student individually or creating a new campaign every day. Both methods are inconvenient.


Problem:

If you send a text message using one of those campaigns, the student will be automatically added to the campaign:



The same applies to the Create or Update Text Message Campaign: Step 2 of 2 - Send Message page where you can add multiple students to a campaign.

You can add multiple students to a campaign by selecting the Active Campaign option in the Campaign field and choosing an open campaign in the Active Campaign field below:
