Your Webio Blocklist

Your Webio Blocklist

Overview

Webio blocklist contains phone numbers or other channel identifiers that have replied Stop as well as those you have manually added to the blocklist from the organisation screen.  When a Stop response is received from a number, this number is automatically added to your blocklist as a permanent block against your Webio organisation.  This means any time you try to send a message to the number, the system will not send it.  The message will be shown in error on the conversation screen and appear in the Failed Communication Report. 

Being able to manage your Blocklist via the front end allows you to control which contacts are on the Blocklist with ease.

Any user that has access to the Organisations screen can Add, Search and Delete from the Blocklist.  

If you can't see Organisations contact your system administrator and request to alter your role profile.
Quick trick: Click into organisations, scroll down to Blocklist, click ADD BLOCKLIST, enter the channelid you wish to block (remember phone numbers need to be in the international format without the leading zero), select the channel type, select the end date on the calendar or click Permanent.  Click submit.  When a STOP response is received from a number, this will automatically be added to your blocklist.
