Same issue with sent messages not populating properties.  Sakari support had to enable it.....  Only took a full day of troubleshooting to figure this out. Now it works.

I sent a message to support, but I haven't heard back. I'm also confused as to how long a sms will sit in queued status before i'll know if it's been delivered or not.

Hi Daniel,

Happy to take a look.  Can you please send some additional information to help@sakari.io and the team can investigate? 

Thanks

We're having issues with sent data not populating the appropriate fields. Can you please advise?

Hello @DanielMcFarland , could you please provide us more details on what is happening on your end?  The more information, screenshots, and details you can provide, the better I can advise on the next steps.

Thank you,

As you can see, I get the message received data, but the Message sent data doesn't populate. Makes it difficult to report on it.

Hi Adam, 

Can you advise on how to get SMS messages out via HubSpot Workflow, please?

Appreciate your help.

Ok - So we want to introduce Sakari but have questions:

How can we set up a contact owner to recieve a notification / reminder when a customer replies? Whats the best workflow to use? Is it possible to actually forward the reply to the contact owners phone or inbox?

I am really interested in your recommended approach. 

Thanks

[adamhorsman]

Hi Alex, 

To forward a reply to contacts phone, you have three options:

1. Sakari has a native forwarding option to a personal phone using User Notifications.

2. You can setup a workflow in HubSpot  with a trigger of a Sakari SMS message received and an action of an internal SMS to your contact owner. 

3. You can setup a workflow in HubSpot  with a trigger of a Sakari SMS message received and an action of a Sakari SMS to your personal phone number. 

Thanks

Thanks for this. On this one:  ." You can set-up a workflow in HubSpot  with a trigger of a Sakari SMS message received and an action of an internal SMS to your contact owner. "

What is the recommended next level on the trigger option i.e. Valid, Status, Occurred so on. 

Then what date settings would you apply to the trigger to ensure the notification is instant.

Thanks

Hi Alex, 

Assuming you want to use the internal SMS action, I would set it up like this:

Thanks Adam! Thats perfect. So will new contacts automatically be synchronised with Sakari as we add them.?

[adamhorsman]

Hi Alex, yes they will.  

Thanks

Are you able to comply with multiple international markets at once, OR, do you have a simple marketer-friendly way to ensure international compliance across markets? Our current systems are very opaque, and while we are a US company we have very active clients in Canada and Australia.

Also, is your US compliance process easy to use and automatically integrated?

[adamhorsman]

Hi Blair, 

We make compliance easy.  By selecting "Marketing" as messaging type in HubSpot we will automatically apply a localized opt-out message for your contacts market. 

Feel free to reach out to me at: adam@sakari.io and we can chat more. 

Thanks

Adam

Do you also comply with localized requirements for "help" or support?
