Contact Exclusion Days

Excluding specific days/dates from campaign sends

Exclusion days allow Administrators to disable campaign deployments on a particular day, in order to avoid disturbing customers with untimely messages. Exclusions can be set by the Administrator as a global default applied to all campaigns and by the users during the deployment creation.

For example, as a global default, deployments will be paused on public holidays or during religious festivals.

📘

The exclusions are based on the configured time-zone and are configured on a channel basis.

During exclusion periods, deployments that are running have their status changed to Pending and the execution is stopped. Once the exclusion period has expired, the deployment automatically acquires Running status, and the execution is resumed.
