Contact groups
Contact groups can be used to categorise your contacts, and also make it easier to send bulk messages
To manage your contact groups go to Contacts > Contact Groups:
If you have existing contact groups, you will see a table that contains the following columns:
- Group name
- Total Contacts - total number of contacts in the group
- Unsubscribed Contacts - number of unsubscribed contacts in the group
- Alias - optional alias for emailing group (see the Email 2 SMS article for more about this)
- Shared By/Shared With - if the group is a shared group the field will be populated with the sub-account names
To create a new contact group, click on New Group:
In the resulting modal, give your group a name and an alias (optional) and click Save. The alias is used for the Email to SMS address:
Editing a contact group
To edit a contact group, simply click on the three dots in the relevant row in the contact group screen and click on Edit:
From this menu, you can also send a message to the contact group, share it with sub-accounts, or delete the contact group.
