Preview and Test SMS

After composing the SMS channel node and when you click on the Preview and Test on the Deployment Builder screen, the composed SMS can be previewed on a mobile skin that impersonates a real device. You can send the SMS to test contacts.

1. Click on Next and Previous buttons to preview how the message is delivered to the target group. This is useful if you have used conditional content in your SMS.

2. Click Send a Test SMS, which opens up a new popup.
3. If the test contact is not added using the Campaigns > Target data > Test contact screen, then you can enter comma-separated MSISDNs including the country code. For example, 12014849989, 12014845683, 12014849134, 447753928685.

A maximum of 50 MSISDNs including test contacts can be used to test and preview the SMS content.

4. If you have already added a test contact using the Campaigns > Target data > Test contact screen, then select the Test Contacts and Router from the respective drop-downs.

3. Click Send.
   The SMS message will be sent to the configured test contacts.
