SMPPCenter’s SMPP software allows you to combine the Random Replace rule with other normalization rules for more dynamic messaging. Here’s how they work together and their benefits:
How Random Replace Works with Other Rules
- The Random Replace rule (under Text Message Rules) randomly replaces a specific word with one from a predefined list (e.g., “OTP” with “code,” “password,” or “number”).
- You can combine this with other normalization rules like Sender Name or Mobile Number modifications in the same rule set.
- Example:
- Sender Name Rule: Change “SMPP” to “SMPPCenter.”
- Text Message Rule: Randomly replace “OTP” with “code,” “password,” or “number.”
- Result: A message like “Your OTP is 1234” from Sender “SMPP” becomes “Your code is 1234” from Sender “SMPPCenter.”
Why Use Them Together?
- Enhanced Flexibility: Combine Random Replace with Sender Name or Mobile Number rules to standardize branding while adding variety to message text.
- Improved Engagement: Avoid repetitive messaging (e.g., using Random Replace for text) while ensuring compliance (e.g., using DLT settings).
- Streamlined Workflows: Apply multiple modifications in one rule, reducing the need for separate configurations.
Best Practices
- Use Random Replace for message text variety and other rules for static changes like Sender Name or DLT IDs.
- Test combined rules to ensure all modifications work as expected.
