In the Administration section of Captivated, Administrators can set up Keyword Actions that trigger an auto-reply. With our latest update, you can now add or remove tags when a keyword is sent to your number in Captivated. Set a specific rule or a group of rules and choose to Match “any” or “all” of your rules. Additionally, when your rules are met, you can choose to:
  • Send an automated reply message or one of your templates to the contact
  • and/or add one or more tags to the contact record
  • and/or remove one or more tags from the contact record
Keyword Actions are great for:
  • Quickly sending answers to FAQs
  • Directing a contact to another resource such as a link, Google Review request, form request, or payment request
  • Adding and removing contacts to specific lists for announcements using tags – e.g. Subscribers to school closings and delays due to weather
  • Allowing contacts to opt-in to receive texts related to “Specials”, “Sales”, etc.
Once you’ve created a Keyword Action, be sure to choose which channel(s) you’d like it applied to under the “Channels” tab. Questions? Our team will gladly double check your setup on a keyword action to make sure it’s functioning as desired. You can chat with Captivated’s support team using the “Support” option in the left-hand menu of our app.
