When creating a Message you'll want to preview the presentation and test databoxes and links work as expected. Simply click the Test button:

You'll be presented with the following:

<div align="center"><figure><img src="/files/PORGN7VMsQw0md2xEeJO" alt=""><figcaption><p>Testing a Message</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Enter values as appropriate and click **Evaluate** to see the Message as it will be seen by the end user:
