Gotchas
Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about plan-gated features and integration gotchas that may be outdated.
Free plan limitations are strict — 500 subscribers, 15K emails/mo, 3 chatbots, and Automation 360 capped at 5 flows / 50 elements / 1 event. Users hitting these limits need to upgrade. Don't recommend large-scale sending or complex multichannel flows on the free plan.
WhatsApp requires Business API approval — connecting WhatsApp to SendPulse chatbots requires WhatsApp Business API access (Meta verification). This can take days/weeks. Users asking about WhatsApp chatbots should start the approval process early.
Automation 360 flow limits are plan-dependent — Free: 5 flows / 50 elements / 1 event; Standard: 10 flows / 70 elements / 10 events; Pro: 50 flows / 150 elements / 50 events; Enterprise: unlimited. Complex multichannel workflows may require Pro+.
SMS pricing is per-message, not included in plan — email plans don't include SMS credits. SMS is billed separately per message, with rates varying by country. Budget separately for SMS campaigns.
Course builder payments depend on external gateways — SendPulse doesn't process payments directly; you must connect Stripe, PayPal, or MercadoPago. If none of these work in the user's region, course monetization may be limited.

Examples
Example 1: Setting up a welcome automation
User says: "I want to create a welcome series in SendPulse that sends an email, then a push notification, then an SMS if they don't open the email"
Skill does: Walks through Automation 360 setup — trigger on list subscription, send welcome email, wait 1 day, check if opened (condition), if no → send web push, wait 1 day, check again, if still no engagement → send SMS. Explains how to set up each channel step and the if/else branching.
Result: User has a multichannel welcome flow that escalates across channels based on engagement.
Example 2: Building a WhatsApp chatbot
User says: "How do I set up a WhatsApp chatbot in SendPulse to handle customer inquiries and collect leads?"
Skill does: Explains WhatsApp Business API connection process, walks through building a chatbot flow (greeting → menu → FAQ branch / lead capture branch), setting up keyword triggers, collecting contact info via variables, tagging subscribers, and configuring live chat handoff for complex queries.
Result: User has a WhatsApp chatbot that handles FAQs and captures leads with handoff to human agents.
Example 3: API integration for transactional email
User says: "I need to send order confirmation emails via SendPulse SMTP API from my app"
Skill does: Provides OAuth authentication setup, shows the POST /smtp/emails endpoint with request format (to, from, subject, html, attachments), explains template variables, recommends setting up webhooks for delivery/bounce tracking, and warns about rate limits.
Result: User has working transactional email integration with delivery monitoring.
Troubleshooting
Emails going to spam
Symptom: Campaign emails landing in spam folders for many recipients
Cause: Missing domain authentication (SPF/DKIM), poor list hygiene, or sending to unengaged contacts
Solution: Verify SPF and DKIM records are configured for your sending domain. Run your list through SendPulse's email verifier to remove invalid addresses. Segment out contacts who haven't opened in 90+ days — sending to unengaged contacts hurts sender reputation. Use /sales-deliverability for comprehensive deliverability strategy.
Automation flow not triggering
Symptom: Automation 360 flow is active but contacts aren't entering it
Cause: Trigger misconfiguration — wrong event, wrong mailing list, or contact already processed
Solution: Check the trigger settings — verify the correct mailing list or event is selected. Check if "allow re-entry" is enabled (disabled by default — contacts can only enter a flow once). Test with a new contact that hasn't been through the flow before. Check flow statistics for any error indicators.
Chatbot not responding on WhatsApp
Symptom: WhatsApp chatbot is built but users don't get responses
Cause: WhatsApp Business API not properly connected, or 24-hour messaging window expired
Solution: Verify WhatsApp Business API connection in SendPulse settings. WhatsApp enforces a 24-hour rule — you can only send free-form messages within 24 hours of the user's last message. Outside this window, you must use pre-approved template messages. Check that your bot flow has a keyword trigger matching the user's message.
