Message links Field Notes
Message links are invitations to draft and review, not automatic submissions. This tag brings together the SMS and email workflows so teams can choose a channel based on the conversation they actually need. The reader, recipient, and device application all have a role in making the next step useful.
Approve the recipient before designing the visual. Keep any default wording short, neutral, and editable, and check it after the real scanning handoff. A subject line or event label can help the receiving team, but an unexplained internal code can make the sender uncertain about what they are about to send.
These guides also discuss alternate contact routes, response expectations, and retiring old materials when details change. There are no message-sending forms or integrations here. The aim is to help you prepare an invitation that remains understandable even when a device lacks a configured messaging or email application.
