   1. Select an Initiation Keyword : Messenger needs to use this keyword to enter the SMS queue
   2. Set the Initiation Message : This is the response the queued messenger will receive when the session begins
   3. Set your Initiation Needed Message : The response the queued messenger will receive if the conversation started without the initiation keyword
   4. Set a Termination Keyword: Pick a standard word like DONE so the messenger can end the chat at will
   5. Pick a Termination Message : This is the message that will play for the messenger when the chat ends
   6. Set your No Agents Message : The response the queued messenger will receive if there are no available agents
5. Select Save to save your SMS configuration

7. From here, we can see our listed SMS Numbers, and edit them via the Pencil icon
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
8. From here, we can select for this number to go to an Available Number, a User, or a Call Queue, and then put in the appropriate number or extension for your selected option
   
   

9. Select Save to save your configuration
