Set your hourly budget requirements. Jobs outside of this range will be filtered out.
Some jobs do not set an hourly range and are open to discussing their hourly budget. The "Apply to Hourly Jobs without a Set Rate" box is checked by default. Uncheck this box to only apply to jobs that have stated an hourly rate.
Set your fixed-price budget rate. Jobs with a fixed-price budget outside of this range will be filtered out.

You must set up your Filters on a separate page. You can select a segment and fill out the Filters page later.
Example Filters

You can view which jobs the bot has applied to here. If you see a job you don't think is a great fit, simply update your filters and all future jobs will be filtered accordingly so that similar jobs will be removed.
Add your message
The message you add here is the cover letter. You can write different cover letters for different campaigns. Simply create additional campaigns with unique messaging and keywords for each.
You can view an example message here.
Upwork has started enforcing external communication. Rather than include a Calendly link, I suggest embeding your calendar on a page on your website. This will not raise any red flags with Upwork. You can see an example here.
Fill out your default message. Upwork allows job listings to have add variable number of questions after the cover letter. This message will be the response to any questions asked beyond the cover letter. It should be something generic like "Let's get on a call"
