          Test Your Apple Messages for Business Channel

          Test Your Apple Messages for Business Channel

          Test your Apple Messages for Business channel to ensure that it’s working the way you expect. Using a sandbox is optional, but a good idea.

          We highly recommend creating separate Apple Messages for Business accounts for sandbox and production. Using separate accounts makes your channel rollout easier, and gives you the freedom to experiment in your sandbox in the future.

          Action Instructions
          (Optional) Set up Messaging in your sandbox.
          1. Complete the steps in Get Started with Messaging.
          2. Create your Apple Messages for Business channel, using the account you designated for sandbox testing.
          Test your channel in sandbox or production.
          1. Log into Salesforce as a service rep.
          2. From the app launcher, open the app that contains Messaging. This is usually the Service Console.
          3. In the Omni-Channel utility or sidebar, change your Omni-Channel presence status so that you’re online and available to receive messages.
          4. From a personal Apple Messages account, send a message to the account associated with your channel.
          5. Look for the incoming message in Omni-Channel. Click the check mark icon to accept the message and open the chat window.
          6. Exchange messages in the channel. Experiment with sending images, files, and messaging components, and test the auto-responses that you’ve configured.
          7. When you’re done, click End Chat.
          (Optional) Migrate your changes from sandbox to production. See Moving Messaging Data Between Sandbox and Production.
