Our new Automatic Retry Infrastructure for WhatsApp campaigns enhances message delivery efficiency, allowing automatic retries for messages that initially encountered delivery issues.
This feature provides greater control and flexibility in ensuring your messages reach the intended recipients.
Key Benefits
Automatic Retrying
Messages that fail to deliver due to valid, temporary errors (e.g., frequency capping) are now eligible for automatic redelivery.This mechanism helps improve overall reach by giving undelivered messages another opportunity for successful delivery.
Custom Delay Configuration
Users can set a specific delay between the original message attempt and the retry attempt.This adjustable timing allows for fine-tuned control of retry intervals, making it adaptable to your campaign strategy.
You can configure upto 3 retries for each campaign.
How to Configure the Automatic Retry Feature:
In the last tab of Campaigns, look for Automatic retry for failed messages checkbox and enable it.
After enabling it you it will ask to select hours from the drop down, select a duration with minimum of 6 Hrs for the first retry and click on Add Retry to add more retires upto 3
for the third retry minimum delay starts from 12 hrs.
After the specified time from the campaign executed time, our system will retry campaign to the failed customers.
The second and third retries will be triggered based on the preceding campaign's triggered time, rather than the parent broadcast's triggered time.
Identification of Retry Campaign:
To know if retries are configured for a campaign we show a count just beside the channel icon, by this you can know that there are reties are configured for that specific campaign.
If the retry campaign are triggered for that campaign we display a button to show all the child campaign of that specific campaign.

On the campaign details page, if a retry campaign exists for the selected campaign, a CTA will appear, allowing you to navigate directly to the retry campaign listing page.
