Sending a media broadcast is a great method to let your customers see photos, videos, or files of your product. To send a broadcast, you will need a pre-approved media template. Refer our article on How to create a template.

To do this:

1. Go to Apps.

Note: Remember to double-check the media links inside the XLSX file, if the links are different, the media broadcast will fail.
