- **HELP**: Users can text `HELP` to receive contact information.
Example STOP/HELP block:
```
Text STOP to opt out. Text HELP for help. Msg & data rates may apply.
```
---
## Step 4 — Messaging Profile + Phone Number Provisioning
### Create Messaging Profile
1. In Telnyx Portal, navigate to **Messaging → Messaging Profiles**.
2. Click **Create Messaging Profile**.
3. Name it (e.g., `groombook-pilot-prod`).
4. Copy the **Messaging Profile ID** (`messaging_profile_id`) — record this in the DB.
### Provision a 10DLC Phone Number
1. Navigate to **Messaging → Phone Numbers**.
2. Search for a number in your desired area code.
3. Confirm the number is 10DLC-capable.
4. Purchase the number.
### Associate Number with Messaging Profile
```bash
# Assign number to messaging profile
curl -X PATCH https://api.telnyx.com/v2/phone_numbers/YOUR_PHONE_NUMBER_ID \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TELNYX_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"messaging_profile_id": "YOUR_MESSAGING_PROFILE_ID"
}'
```
---
## Step 5 — Record in Database
Once [GRO-981](/GRO/issues/GRO-981) lands, record the following against the business record:
### SQL Path (when GRO-981 is complete)
```sql
UPDATE businesses
SET
messaging_phone_number = '+13125551000',
telnyx_messaging_profile_id = 'YOUR_MESSAGING_PROFILE_ID',
telnyx_brand_id = 'YOUR_BRAND_ID',
telnyx_campaign_id = 'YOUR_CAMPAIGN_ID',
telnyx_brand_status = 'APPROVED',
telnyx_campaign_status = 'ACTIVE',
updated_at = NOW()
WHERE id = 'pilot_business_id';
```
### Manual Admin Path (before GRO-981)
Until GRO-981 is complete, use the Telnyx Portal to verify and record values manually in your internal ops sheet:
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| `messagingPhoneNumber` | +1XXXXXXXXXX |
| `telnyxMessagingProfileId` | xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx |
| `telnyxBrandId` | xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx |
| `telnyxCampaignId` | xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx |
| `brandStatus` | APPROVED / PENDING |
| `campaignStatus` | ACTIVE / PENDING |
---
## Sample Message Templates
These must match exactly what your system will send. Vetting reviewers compare templates against actual traffic.
### Transactional Appointment Reminder
```
Hi {{first_name}}, this is a reminder from {{business_name}} that your appointment is scheduled for {{date}} at {{time}}. Reply STOP to opt out. Msg & data rates may apply.
```
### Manual Staff Message
```
Your appointment with {{business_name}} is confirmed for {{date}}. Need to reschedule? Reply HELP for assistance or call us at {{phone}}. Msg & data rates may apply.
```

## Failure Modes + Retry Guidance
### Vetting Rejection — Brand
| Rejection Reason | Common Fix |
|-----------------|------------|
| Legal name mismatch with EIN | Ensure exact EIN name matches legal company name exactly |
| Website not accessible / missing privacy policy | Add privacy policy page to website before resubmitting |
| Incomplete primary contact | Provide direct phone and real email (no noreply) |
| High-risk business vertical | Contact Telnyx support for pre-screening before resubmitting |
### Campaign Rejection
| Rejection Reason | Common Fix |
|-----------------|------------|
| Sample messages do not match actual traffic | Update sample messages to match exactly what the system sends |
| Missing STOP/HELP language | Add compliant STOP/HELP block to sample messages |
| Volume estimate too low/high | Revise estimate to be realistic |
| Use case mismatch | Re-select use case that matches actual messaging |
### Re-submission
After fixing the rejection reason, re-submit via the same API endpoint. Telnyx will re-run vetting (typically 2448 hours).

## Rollback / De-provisioning
If the pilot tenant must be de-provisioned:
1. Release the phone number: Telnyx Portal → Phone Numbers → Release.
2. Archive the campaign: set status to `INACTIVE` via API or console.
3. Remove DB record: clear `messagingPhoneNumber`, `telnyxMessagingProfileId`, `telnyxCampaignId` fields in the business record.
4. Brand can remain registered (no harm) but will not be used.
