Sending Profiles (Send-From Configurations)

Sending Profiles

To send emails or SMS messages in a phishing campaign, it requires you to configure the Sending Profiles*. We set different types of sending profiles based on the type of the campaign. The targets will receive the phishing email or message from the configured sending profile, that's why configuring your sending-profile is one of the steps prior launching the phishing campaign. 

1. Login using your username and the associated password.
2. From the User Actions section[1], select Settings icon.
3. Select Sending Profiles [2].
4. You will see two tabs in the Sending Profiles page: SMTP and SMS**.

In this article, you will find the two methods available for configuring a sending profile for your campaign: 

• SMTP profile, which is used for Email Campaigns.
• SMS profile, which is used for SMS Campaigns.

*     Configuring SMTP profile may be optional depends on your deployment plan.
