Overview
What is the Contest Module?
The Contest module enables you to run fully-fledged contests directly in the chatbot. You can set up a contest task, and the module will take care of collecting applications. You can then look through the applications in a user-friendly manner. There is a list that can be either viewed in the browser or exported to a CSV file.
Why use Contest?
By using Contest, you can organize an engaging contest that will increase the audience's activity in the chatbot. Create an original contest assignment and select what type of interactive piece the attendees need to submit. At the end, announce the winners and reward the attendee with some special surprise.
How to access Contest?
To access the Survey Module, navigate to Modules > Contest from the navigation bar.
Application policy
Configure the Application policy (how many times users can send an application). Available options are:
Users can apply only once;
Users can apply many times;
Users can apply once a week;
Users can apply twice a week;
Users can apply three times a week.
Then, set the contest’s start date in the Start at field and the ending date in the Stop at field.
Additionally, provide a message that will be sent to the user if they attempt to send an application before the start of the contest in the Too early message field and a similar message in Too late message.
Welcome message
Provide a Welcome message sent to the user when they enter the module. Optionally, you may also provide a Welcome image that will be sent before the Welcome message.
Regulations and agreements
Type the message instructing the user to read the rules in the Regulations intro message field. Then upload a PDF file with rules and type in the caption on the button that will show the user the regulations. Proceed to type in the content of a message with two buttons in which you will ask the user if they read the regulations.
The chatbot’s response in case the user doesn't agree to the regulations can be customized. Enable the Configure what happens if the user does not agree to regulations section at the very end of the page and configure the content using the Creator available there.
Collecting applications
Type in the instruction of the contest in the Contest instruction message field and decide what types of applications are accepted in your contest. The available options are:
images;
text applications;
GPS location.
