    Field Description
    User ID Specify your Gupshup account's user ID.
    Username Provide your Gupshup account username. 
    Password Provide your Gupshup account password.
    WHITELABEL HOST NAME (CNAME)

    Enter the custom domain for shortened URLs.

    This is the domain that will be used to mask links for tracking purposes.

    The domain must be setup as a CNAME record in your DNS. The CNAME must map to either links.getblueshift.com (US or Rest of the world) or links.eu.blueshift.com (EU region) based on your Blueshift login region. SSL is required for any link masking domains.

    If you are unsure which domain to setup in your DNS please contact your CSM or support@getblueshift.com.

    For example, if you custom domain is hooli.com and the original link is hooli.com/product-updates/january-2023, the shortened link could look like hooli.com/4wesktjv.

  8. Click Save to add the adapter.

Next steps

  1. Create an SMS template for your messages.
  2. In your campaign journey, add an SMS trigger. On the SMS tab of the trigger, go to Send Settings and specify Gupshup as the App and select the adapter that you just created.
