kvCORE (BoldTrail) recipes

Text new kvCORE leads from your own number instead of a platform number.

Two recipes for kvCORE (BoldTrail). Each names its trigger and the BlueBot step, lists the fields to map and says how to test it with your own number before anyone else gets a text.

How kvCORE (BoldTrail) connects

  • Zapier: BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.

Before you turn it on

  • Text only people who asked to hear from you. Anyone who replies STOP goes on your stop list, and BlueBot cancels texts to them. Stop words
  • A text that can’t go yet waits with a hold rather than failing: quiet hours, your Mac away, a daily limit. Holds
  • kvCORE (BoldTrail) with BlueBot on the integrations page says what else the two do together.
