When you want to send or receive SMS, you create what we call an SMS Campaign.
A draft campaign is any SMS Campaign you're currently working on but haven't finished, or have scheduled to be sent out at a later time/date.
As soon as a campaign is given a Name, we automatically save it as a draft campaign (whether you added contacts or composed your message, or neither). You can then access this campaign later and edit or finish it as required.
Hi Peter,
That's correct. Once a campaign is marked as active, it's gone into our queue and has started reaching customers and thus cannot be changed.
Your campaign is marked as a draft right up until the moment you hit send, so to avoid any problems always double check your message before hitting that send button!
Hi Agus,
Thanks for your prompt response. I was actually able to modify an active campaign by creating a new campaign and used an existing campaign name.
I received the modified message fine.
Is this a bug or a newly discovered feature?
Only Draft Campaigns can be edited?
Hi Peter,
That won't actually modify the active campaign, that will create a new campaign with the same name. If you'd like to discuss this in more detail, please free to send an email to support(at)smscentral.com.au
