Overview
The package contains one activity that allows you to send SMS messages via a Twilio account.
After registering on Twilio to recieve the Account SID and Auth Token, you can populate the necessary fields to send text messages.
Text Messages are an additional notification mechanism for workflows - messages can be sent at critical business process steps or errors. These are only two of the possible use cases. The possibilities are endless!
The inputs to the activity is a set of strings, and the values need to be in Quotes if they are not in a variable. If using a trial account, From Number needs to be bought from Twilio's website and associated with your account, and also To Number needs to be registered on Twilio's website.
