SMS send

An action block that sends an SMS without user interaction.

If the proceed option is set to Immediately, then the fiber will proceed immediately without pause, before the SMS is sent. If set to When sent, then the fiber will pause until the SMS has been sent to the carrier/gateway. If set to When delivered, then the fiber will pause until the SMS has been delivered to the recipient.

A message longer than 160 characters will be split into multiple parts, each sent as a separate SMS. Set multipart limit to truncate the message to a maximum number of parts.

Automate limits the rate of SMS sent with this block. The rate can be configured in settings.

Note! If this block succeed without any error message but the SMS isn’t delivered, try prefixing the phone number with an (+) country calling code.
