Send Message

Send SMS Command

With Twidget, you can send SMS messages to phones using the Send SMS command. This functionality varies depending on the provider. Currently, we support Twilio as the SMS provider.

-

Prerequisites

To use Twilio for SMS integrations, you will need:

  • A Twilio account ID

  • Twilio Auth Token

  • A Twilio-provided phone number

These credentials can be obtained by registering with Twilio.

Usage

To send an SMS:

  1. Provide Twilio Credentials: Ensure that your Twilio account ID and Auth Token are correctly populated in your API settings.

  2. Specify Phone Numbers: Input the phone number that you wish to send the SMS to.

  3. Enter the message content: Populate the receiver's message content

Testing

By default, SMS commands sent via testing mode will succeed without actually sending an SMS. This prevents accidental messages during development.

To test real SMS messages:

  • Update the test to use Live Data Mode.

Send Email Command

You can send emails from Twidget using the Send Email command.

-

Prerequisites

The Send Email command requires email settings:

  • By default, it will use the email details you provide in your API settings.

  • Alternatively, you can override the settings by selecting Custom Email Settings in the dropdown.

Usage

To send an email:

  1. Provide Email Settings: If using custom settings, specify host, port, username, and password for your email provider.

  2. Recipient Information: Populate the receiver's email, email subject, and email content.

Testing

By default, email commands sent via testing mode will succeed without actually sending an email, ensuring test emails aren’t sent by accident.

To test real emails:

  • Update the test to use Live Data Mode.
