Has anyone managed to come up with a way to send SMS text messages from a dashboard built with Wappler? I'd like to be able to send appointment/workshop reminders through text message. Doesn't have to be automatic, it can be manual. Thanks in advance.

You can check Twillio , their API is quite easy to use.

I can't find any info on their api at all?

Messages resource | Twilio API reference for the Message resource: send SMS, MMS, and WhatsApp messages, query message statuses, and get, update, or delete sent messages.

Check this topic as well: [image] Setting Up Sending SMS With The Twilio API Need Help Hi All, Heres a quick guide for anyone looking to set up Twilio SMS as part of a booking system. I’ve just completed a booking system that works like a dream so though…

My solution listed above will do exactly as you want, mine was both automatic and manual, depending on the nature of the SMS. It’s been very reliable so far.

I was using clickatell it was very nice. It s from South African carrier

If you are using node, my Onesignal extension also has SMS sending functionality although I would recommend using Twilio as it's a cleaner implementation than Onesignal's offering

i also use the Twilio route.. but went the Whatsapp route.. as the cost per message was way cheaper.. the only thing with the Whatsapp.. its normally template based.. so you cant just setup a random message.. it will first need to be set message that is approved.. just worked out way way cheaper…

Twilio was actually very easy once I figured it out. I have it working on a trial account. I am a bit skeptical on the cost though. About how mush are you guys spending on Twilio for about how many messages?

Strongly recommend you use $_ENV variables for your keys to keep them secure rather than coding directly into API call
