Contact History

Whether you use Contact Lists to manage contacts within your email/sms campaigns or add contacts directly to your Email Campaigns or SMS Campaigns, you have access to a Contact History for each contact.

The Contact History allows you to do the following:

  • Within Email/SMS Campaigns, see all of the emails/text messages that have been sent to a specific contact from that campaign.
  • Within Contact Lists, see all of the emails/text messages that have been sent to a specific contact across surveys that they have been added to.
  • Use the Contact History to Resend specific messages that have already been sent to them.

Contact History Definitions

The Contact History view will contain the following information.

  • Date and time the message was sent to the specific contact (according to the Date/Time specified in your Account Settings).
  • Type of message that was sent. This will read either Initial Invite, Reminder, or Thank You.
  • Status of the message. This will display whether the message was Sent or Bounced.
  • Related Project > Invite will display the name of the survey (in blue) that the send was associated with.

Resend Message

Sometimes people accidentally delete messages or have a hard time finding a specific email/sms if they have a cluttered inbox. The Contact History view allows you to Resend a specific message to a contact if for any reason they lost track of your original email.
