Before you start

  • A sending address. You can always use AFRUS's. To send from your organization's address, your domain must be verified first (card above the list).

Step by step

  1. Open autoresponders. Go to Interacciones > Autoresponders.
  2. Choose the language above the list.
  3. Start a new one. Click "Nuevo autoresponder" (New autoresponder).
  4. Choose where it applies. In Contexto (Context): Genérico (Generic), Por campaña (By campaign) or Por formulario (By form).
  5. Choose the moment. In Evento (Event), for example TransacciĂłn registrada (Transaction registered).
  6. Choose Manual mode and click "Confirmar e ir al editor" (Confirm and go to the editor).
  7. Fill in the details. Correo de envĂ­o (Sending email), Asunto del correo (Subject) and, if you want, an Archivo adjunto (Attachment). Click "Siguiente" (Next).
  8. Design the email. Choose Diseño en blanco (Blank), Galería de diseños (Gallery), Autoresponders (copy a previous one) or Editor con código (Code editor).
  9. Publish and save. Turn on Publicado (Published) and click "Guardar" (Save).

When you finish, it shows as Activo (Active) in the list.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pause it?

Yes, turn off the switch on its row. It becomes Inactivo.

Can it be undone if I delete it?

No. Deleting removes it instantly, without confirmation. If you only want to pause it, turn it off.

Can I make it with AI?

Yes: in the Genérico tab, on a No configurado event, click "Configurar" and choose Con IA. Fill in the URL call to action: if you leave it empty, the list keeps showing No configurado.

Do I need anything to make it with AI?

Yes, your user must have a signature created in AI > Firmas de usuarios. Without a signature you can't set up AI autoresponders.
