Content Card Expiration More than 30 Days
We would like to use Content Cards for a few of our seasonal hero carousel topics, as well as our "always on" cards. I noticed that Braze mentions content cards have a maximum of 30 days that they can show in a users app, but I'm trying to find out if there's a workaround I could use to get around this time limit. It appears that if I change the expiration from "after a duration" to "at a specific time", this 30 day max note goes away - however, the Braze documentation still appears to call out this 30 day max so it's not clear if this applies to just the "after a duration" setting or if it also applies to the "at a specific time" option. I had a couple thoughts on a workaround, but again, I don't know if the max duration will still override these ideas or not. Schedule the campaign or canvas to a daily setting and allow users to repeat the campaign/canvas. The only issue here is that I can only schedule a campaign/canvas at most once a day, even though on the "allow re-entry" settings, I can go down to the minute on campaigns or to the second on canvases. Would the daily setting on the campaign/canvas schedule prevent someone from seeing the content card again if they open the app more than once in a day, or will that not matter if we also have the content card expiration set to a date way further in the future? String a bunch of the same content cards together in a canvas so they essentially repeat every 30 days (not as big of an issue on our seasonal cards that are only on for 3 months, but a much bigger pain for "always on" cards). Are either of these ideas a good workaround to allow us to leave a content card on for more than 30 days? Or will I not even need to use these fixes if I only use the "at a specific time" expiration setting? Would love to hear some ideas and thoughts around whether anyone else has run into this content card expiration window issue for their specific use cases.New Braze YouTube Resource!!

Does anyone do a combined email and phone number capture in Braze? I'm trying to create an experience where first screen is email capture, second screen is phone number capture, and third screen is confirmation but struggling especially because I would like the form to tell a user if the email already exists in Braze.Channel Substitute.
I’ve seen so many wasteful forms of communication that could be handled more effectively with CRM channels—yet brands continue relying on outdated, inefficient methods. ✅ Event Reminders via Call Centers? → A well-timed push notification or SMS would be faster, cheaper, and ensure the message actually lands. ✅ Mass Email Blasts for Promotions? → A behavior-based CRM journey can tailor offers dynamically based on customer interest, rather than sending generic discounts. ✅ Website Pop-Ups for Account Reactivation? → A personalized email or in-app message triggered by inactivity would recover users without annoying everyone. ✅ Store Flyers for Loyalty Programs? → Why not leverage CRM automation to send a targeted push or SMS only to engaged customers instead of wasting print materials? ✅ Manual Follow-Ups for Onboarding? → A multi-step CRM journey with email + in-app education would ensure higher activation rates with less manual work. So many day-to-day marketing efforts could be more effective, personalized, and cost-efficient just by leveraging CRM channels properly. That's it, just a note of things I see that drives me crazy.
'Copy' functionality in a Content Card
Does anyone know if it's possible to add 'copy' functionality to a Content Card. For example, if a discount code is displayed we would want to give the user the ability to copy that code to place elsewhere. While I appreciate that they could use native functionality on the device, it's better CX to allow a fast copy function.
