Two questions regarding SMS Texts:
1. We noticed that there is no option to reply back via email if customer initiates query via SMS Text channel.  Is there a workaround? Or does it require that we create a new email ticket if we want to email customer instead
2. We have agent signature and universal signature enabled and these show up in our text replies when we reply back via text on an existing email ticket. This behavior is not the case when responding to a SMS ticket that was initiated/originated from the customer only if we reply back using a “Proactive Text” trigger which includes a Notify by text Action. Is there a way to have signatures removed so texts actually look like texts and not emails that have been texted?

Hi 1263169421170 

Based on this article, you can receive inbound MMS messages on US and CA numbers. Zendesk Text doesn't support outbound MMS messages. For more information, see the article: Getting started with Text.

As a workaround, you can send outbound SMS messages that contain a URL guiding recipients to an internet-hosted image.

Trying to find instruction on including a pdf file in an SMS response to an end user (customer). Anyone have any information on this?

Hello eCampus.com,
 
Thank you for reaching out with your question about making SMS numbers clickable on mobile devices relating to the Zendesk platform.
 
Currently, Zendesk does not offer a built-in feature specifically for making SMS numbers clickable in the same way that telephone links work. However, there might be some creative workarounds that could be implemented depending on the context in which you want the SMS number to be clickable.
 
One common method is to use standard HTML anchor tags with the href attribute set to sms: followed by the phone number. This would look something like <a href="sms:+1234567890">Send a Message</a>. This can create a clickable link that, when tapped on a mobile device, would open the default messaging app with the number pre-filled.
 
Please note that this approach's effectiveness can vary based on the device, browser, or email client being used, and it may not always function as intended within all aspects of the Zendesk interface.
 
I encourage you to share this question with the Zendesk community or other support forums, as other users may have found innovative solutions and could offer alternative suggestions. In the meantime, if the clickable SMS functionality is critical for your operations, you might need to explore external tools or integrations that provide this feature more robustly.
 
If you find a solution that works well for you, or if you have further questions, please feel free to share your findings or reach out again.

Hey Danielle! Thanks for your comment. You can indeed test SMS functionality while trialing Zendesk Talk. Apologies, this information was not more clear in our Talk documentation and we appreciate the video idea feedback! 
 
I do see you submitted a Support request regarding this issue so please be on the lookout for my reply so we can work more closely together getting this set up for you. Talk to you soon!

Are there better visuals of the agent experience using Text in Agent Workspace? To my understanding we cannot test Text with a Talk Trial. In that case, it would be really helpful to have a video walkthrough of the workflow of an agent using Text in Zendesk. Can you please help to point me in the right direction? My searches have not been successful. Thank you

Hi Philani,
 
Could you provide a bit more clarity on what you mean by "outbound bulk SMS as a system"? If you're referring to the capability to send mass outbound text messages, I must inform you that Zendesk currently does not support this feature. For further information, you can check out this support article: Can I use Zendesk to send mass text messages?.
 
However, if you meant something else, please don't hesitate to elaborate further so we can provide the most relevant recommendations. Thank you!
