Set Up AI SMS Workflow Agent
Set up the AI SMS Workflow Agent to automatically send AI-powered text messages when a candidate or client reaches a specific status. Configure message instructions, AI conversation behavior, notification settings, and workflow triggers to automate SMS communication throughout your workflow.
For demonstration purposes, this article uses Candidates as an example. However, you can follow the same steps to create and use AI SMS workflow templates for Clients as well.
