      Your title goes here
      You can configure different actions for the close button. The respective action will also be applicable by default on the close function on the screen overlay tap.
      • Dismiss: Closes the template.
      • Deep Link:  Redirects users to another page. It works on both internal and external links.
      • Push Permission: Helps app owners ask for push permission (on iOS) wit Insider's App Templates. If a push permission pops up once, it will never be shown again. This is due to the limitations of the operating system, not to bother the user too much.
      • Open Settings: Takes the user to the settings of the app at the OS level. If users disabled push notifications or location services before, they can enable them from these settings.
      • Feedback: Opens the default app rating prompt on the application.

      Push permission allows the app owner to trigger a native push permission popup on iOS. You can prompt each user only once with this popup. If a user clicks it multiple times, no popup will be prompted again. You can set the re-eligibility to 1 to create a campaign a user will see only once, and redirect users to a page where you can ask them if they want to opt in for push notifications.

      Open Settings option opens the settings page of the app. Unlike push permission, this can be triggered multiple times. If a user opens their app settings via this option, they can configure their app notification details and settings, consent for cameras, microphone etc. You can ask your users for permissions via an inApp and redirect them to the settings page.

      12. The Thanks page can have a second button.

      13. You can assign the actions above to this second button as well.
