You can move rules from the "not translated" sheet to the "translated" sheet and vice versa. If you include a rule in both sheets, the uploader will attempt to update it twice, which will almost certainly fail because the first update will cause the rule to re-process, so it will be locked when the second sheet attempts to update it. See "limitations" for specifics around moving messages between sheets for rule that have custom schedules.

The upload will process update all rules that it can and will display explanatory messages for any rules it cannot processupdate. See "limitations" section below for caveats to the upload functionality.

The uploader does not cause the edited rules to be re-processed.

Limitations

  • This feature only manages conditional alerts that send SMS content. It does not handle email, SMS surveys, or custom SMS content.
  • This feature only edits existing rules. It does not add new rules or delete rules.
  • You cannot update rules that are currently being processed.
  • Only languages specified in Messaging > Settings > Languages will appear in the download. Similarly, any languages not specified Messaging specified in Messaging > Settings > Languages (e.g., a language that has been deleted) will not be updated even if included in the upload.
  • For translated rules, messages may not be blank for any language. For rules that are not translated, the single message may not be blank.
  • Custom schedule handling
    • If the existing rule’s messages are all on the same sheet, you can update any of them and can move all of them to the other sheet. You can’t move only some of them to the other sheet.
    • If the existing rule’s messages are split between sheets, you can only update that rule’s messages on one sheet (doesn’t matter which one, either translated or not translated). If you try to update messages on both sheets, the messages on the first sheet will be updated, but the messages on the second sheet will not, and you’ll get an error about the rule already processing. You can move messages between sheets only if you’re moving all of the messages from one sheet to the other sheet (and it’s important to be careful, because they will be matched based on order, so if you have a rule with events A, B, and C, and A and C are translated but B is not, if you want to move B to the translated sheet you need to insert the B row between A and C).
