Send SMS Block

Use this block to send an Short Message Service (SMS) message created with the Create SMS block. This version of Composer supports native SMS, which means that the SMS message is sent via SMS Server and not via an e-mail to SMS gateway.

Note: The Send SMS block should only be used if the interaction queue (Create SMS block) property is set. If this property is not set, the Orchestration platform will automatically send the SMS via an internal Orchestration queue, and therefore the Send SMS block is not needed.

The Send E-mail block has the following properties:
