As per the DLT platform scrubbing requirements, operators will accept and deliver messages only if they receive the following information in every message submission:
-
-
- Principal Entity ID
- Sender ID
- Template ID

We've listed the instruction to be followed for the SMS providers Gupshup and Kaleyra below:
- Login to the Gupshup portal using your Account login details and OTP.
- Go to the DLT Template module. There are two tabs: Single Template and Upload Template List.
- In the Single Template section, list the following and click SUBMIT.
-
- Template Name
- Template Id (URN)
- Transactional (yes/no)
- DLT Message Type
- Message Type
- Business Category
- Mask
- Template content.

- In the Upload template list section, list the same details as above. This is a bulk upload option where you can upload many templates simultaneously.
Kaleyra has launched a new service - "DLT AI", which lets you continue the message submission process without ANY changes. You will only have to do the following:
- Submit the Entity ID and Sender ID. For more information, refer to Submitting Entity and Sender ID in Kaleyra.
- Submit the Template ID. For more information, refer to Kaleyra Templates.
Once you have added the Entity ID and Template ID on Kaleyra’s Platform, these details will be auto-mapped for you, and the requests will be submitted to the operators.

Update settings on the MoEngage Dashboard
If you use SMS Gupshup or Kaleyra as integrated providers, update the Sender IDs in the MoEngage Dashboard. Enter the Header ID registered and approved on the DLT platform in the Sender ID field for all the senders - for both transactional and promotional SMS. This will ensure that your SMS campaigns are not impacted.
Configure SMS as per the approved template
As per template scrubbing guidelines, you must adhere to your SMS content with the approved templates. If the SMS does not match any of the approved templates, your SMS will be rejected.
You can pass dynamic or personalized values in #var# parameter of the approved template. Each #var# has a limit of 30 characters. You can use a combination of #var# to accommodate more number of characters. Configure the templates as required and get them approved.
