Refer to the Launching campaign programs documentation for guidelines on planning, gaining approval, testing and launching your campaign within your organization.
The Campaigns Administration page lets you view, create, and edit your campaigns. Create up to five campaigns, or increase this limit by purchasing extra volume packs. Contact your Nexthink representative for more information.
Using campaigns in VDI sessions requires Nexthink VDI experience.
To navigate to the Campaigns Administration page:
Select Campaigns from the main menu.
Click on Manage campaigns in the navigation menu.
Consult the table of all available campaigns on the Campaigns Administration page. The table is organized by:
Name: Edit the campaign by clicking on its name.
Origin: Campaigns can be Custom, Copied from library or Installed from library.
Tags: View tags associated with a campaign.
Status: Campaigns can be in a Draft, Published or Retired state.
Last published: The date a campaign was last published.
Triggers: The trigger method can be Manual, Scheduled, Remote Action, API or Workflow.
You can search for a specific campaign by name using the search box at the top right of the table.
Refer to the Creating campaigns documentation for more information about creating custom campaigns and configuring library campaigns.
Nexthink offers a set of campaigns you can manually install from the Nexthink Library. Library campaigns are preconfigured and designed to gather user data on issues related to specific use cases and solutions, and can also be used within remote actions or workflows to inform employees and gather their input.
Refer to Nexthink Library documentation for more information.
Unlike campaigns installed from Library, you can freely edit and customize campaigns copied from Library to better suit your needs without the need to create one from scratch. Nexthink recommends using Library content as a starting point before attempting to create any custom campaigns.
Custom campaigns allow you to ask users specific questions or convey information to them easily. You can also create campaigns to gather inform employees and gather their input within your own custom remote actions or workflows. Refer to Getting started with Campaigns for more information.
Hover over a campaign to reveal the action menu on the right side of the row. The action menu is context-sensitive and changes depending on the status of a campaign.
