2. Predefined message – If you want to communicate a specific message to the audience of the creators, you should check "Yes" and provide according to text for the message.
3. A personal message – If you would like to allow additional text to be added by the creator in the campaign you should leave "Yes" selected, it is set as the default value.
4. Call to action – If needed you can provide a call to action URL for swipe-up in Instagram stories. Please be aware that this functionality is not available for creators with a small follower count.
