Checking if a Contact is Active
While there is no direct way to determine if a contact is 'active' within the Everbridge platform, you can use the following methods to identify contacts that may no longer be using the service:
- Advanced Search: Perform an Advanced Search to view contact activity.
- Unsubscribe Report: Generate the Unsubscribe Report as described above to see which contacts have opted out of notifications.
Using this information, you can clean up your contact database by deleting accounts for users who no longer require Everbridge services.
NOTES:
- You or your message senders will not be able to add contacts to the unsubscribe list or remove contacts from the unsubscribe list.
- If any of your contacts have asked you to stop sending notifications to them via SMS, email or voice you can either remove their contact information from your Everbridge Organization (and your system of record) or ask your constituent to follow the steps to unsubscribe/opt-out in the relevant KBAs listed below.
- Phone numbers, mobile phone numbers and email addresses will remain on the unsubscribe list indefinitely or until your constituent resubscribes.
