Menu: Select an Action

If you're wondering what all of the "Select an Action" menu options mean, you're in the right place. This article will go over what each option means and what its capabilities are.

If you click the "Select an Action" menu, you'll see these options pop up. We'll define them below for you:

Create a folder: Selecting this action will prompt you to create and name a new folder. You can organize your lists using these folders. You will see it at the top of your My Lists page under "All Folders"

Create a list: Selecting this action prompts you to create and name a new list.

Create a new message: First select a list by clicking on the checkbox next to the name and then click the "Create a new message" button.  The create a message interface allows you to add, edit, and preview the message intended to be transmitted to the list.  If you want to use the same message for multiple lists, then from the My Lists page, use the select checkboxes to select multiple lists and create a message that is used for the selected lists. See Creating a New Message for more details.

Edit prior message: First select a list by clicking on the checkbox next to the name and then click Edit prior message. This will bring you to editor of the message that was composed and saved.

Send saved message now: First select a list using the checkboxes and then select Send saved message now to begin sending out your message to the contacts in the list.  Note: This action item can be used to start multiple lists if multiple lists are selected. To prevent accidental starting of multiple lists and to start only one list, it is recommended to click on the list name and use the Send Message Now button from the List Details page.

Stop sending/pending message now: First select a list in the dialing state using the checkboxes and then select Stop dialing now to stop sending out your message.

Copy a list: Copies a select list.

Create a subset list: Uses filters from a master list to create partial lists based upon criteria such as building code, grade, etc…  See Creating a Subset List for more details.

Create a superset list: Allows you to combine several lists into one large list.  See Creating a Superset List for more details.

Delete a list: Permanently removes a list from the interface.  It is possible to delete multiple lists using this action so be sure you are confirming the list or lists you want to delete before clicking OK.

Add list to favorites: This will add the selected list to your Favorites folder.
