Set rules at the campaign level when you want to holistically control how a campaign displays.") and [Add Mobile Message Targeting Rules](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=mktg.mc_pers_mobile_campaign_message_targeting_rules.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "After you create a Mobile In-App Message or Mobile Data campaign, you can add message rules and promote content in Message Rules. Message rules control when a mobile in-app message shows for a visitor. For example, show the message when a visitor takes a specific action. Or only show the message a certain number of times per visit, during a specific time period, or all of the time. Use Promoted Content to promote a specific item or multiple items either by selecting the item or by using Einstein Recipes algorithms or Einstein Decisions AI.").

Example

![Sample in-app message](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-mktg-mc_personalization-264-0-0-production-enus/16bf1f60-f44c-4260-a56e-f052cfe515a3/mc_personalization/images/mc_pers_mobile_campaign_in_app_message.png)
