Question: Why is my campaign failing?
Response: Every phone number uploaded must be marked as opt-in, which is mandatory as per WhatsApp guidelines. Hence, it is advised first to mark users opt-in and then send a campaign.

Question: What are the different reasons for the failure of a campaign?
Response: A campaign can fail because of the following reasons -

• Deduplication - We automatically remove duplicate phone numbers from the uploaded file.
• Optin Validation - The campaign will only go to users marked as opted-in.
• Value not available for a variable - If the file uploaded does not have a value against a phone number for a column selected and the fallback value is blank, then the user will not receive the message. Plus, in the case of media, if the link provided is not in the right format, then the campaign will fail for that phone number.
