Definition

Messages to users are messages (SMS or Email) sent automatically to users by the platform.

It can concern:

An action made by users

The SBO allows the management of these messages.

Create messages to users

Create a message to be automatically sent to users. They can be customized depending on the platform (it may need custom development)

Read the “messages to users” interface

Use the search bar (figure 1) to find the messages. When searching for a message to manage, the super-administrator can write the words related to it in the search bar.

The “Clear Cache” button at the top of the page will help to display the modification. Indeed a cache is a piece of information saved by a web browser or a server to load pages faster. When clearing the cache of the web browser, it deletes all the information saved on the cache and displays the information saved in the new cache.

For each message block (figure 2), it shows:

The trigger. It is the event that sends the message to the target.
The target. It is the recipient of the message
The message type (Mail / SMS)
The overview of the message

The folder icon displays the details of the message.

How can you read the message?

To customize each message automatically sent, we use placeholders.

A placeholder is a dynamic value stored in the database and changes according to the context and the person. It is easily recognizable with the “%” symbol at the end and beginning of it. This is a mandatory syntax for each placeholder.

In our case, you can find placeholders used in labels (figure 3)

For example, each user on a platform has a different first name, the placeholder records it so the automatic personal message becomes customized.
