# Availability reminder

Our availability reminder feature has been built to remind your members of a work day tomorrow. Once set up the platform will send out messages on a daily basis and is fully automated.

## Settings

**Membership reminder text message enabled?**: Do you want to use this feature?

**Only first workday**: Do we only send a message if tomorrow is the first work day of this member? The next work days no message will be sent.

**Only if at least one shift**: Do we only send a message if the member has at least one [work shift](/event/planning/members/shifts.md) tomorrow?

**Message**: The actual content of the message that will be sent.

{% hint style="success" %}
This text area supports [variables](/event/misc/variables.md).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
The event carries the responsibility to make a guess on the length of the message and thereby how many message segments will be sent. To help calculate, use [this](https://twiliodeved.github.io/message-segment-calculator/) tutorial.
{% endhint %}

**Days**: Pick the days a message should be sent. If a day is unchecked, we won't send a message if the person has to work that day.

Once set up, the platform will send the messages the day before a work day at noon(ish).

## Text messages

This page shows you a list of sent messages and their [status](/event/communication/text-messages/bulk.md#recipients).

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.eventication.com/event/communication/text-messages/availability-reminder.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
