I have seen various posts regarding some forge components used to send SMS. I request a step-by-step process to send an SMS from the OutSystems application, Starting from the installation, and configuration to sending the SMS for both the mobile App and the Reactive Web App.
Hi gayathri,
You can use Twilio to send SMS.
Create an account in twilio and you can integrate.

Hi Gayathri ,
You can send SMS from your application with the help ot twillo .
Here is the link where you can login and register youself with your phone number and you can easily send sms .
What you need to do ?
Just install twillo forge component and take dependency in your application and use server action . There are two mandatory parameters "To" and "Message" . In "To" you just need to pass the value and in "Message" the message you want to send .
Blow images will help you .
let me know if you have any question .
Thanks
Arif .
Is your problem solved ?

Hi,
Just to clarify, you will need service from third party for sending sms (hence above me recommended using twilio plugin and you also need to have twilio account for this).
You can also use other third party, as this usually using REST API for sending.
You can also use Amazon SNS to send SMS.And there is a supported component available by OutSystems, which is a big plus!
i did everything sms said it has been sent, on the console it says delivered but i got no sms on my phone using twilio simple sms or TwilioMessage server action

I followed the same approach using a REST API and just called it from a Server Action. Added the API key in the request headers and passed the phone number and message as inputs.
I used sms.to to send messages from my OutSystems app and it worked fine. They have a simple REST API that you can set up easily using their docs. I just added the API to my app, set the right headers with the API key, and passed the phone number and text. Messages went through right away and I could handle responses with basic logic.
