How do I send an SMS from a flow, and why is the SMS block disabled?
Add an SMS block and fill Name, Sms number from (one of your active SMS numbers) and Content. The content box supports Shortkeys personalisation, shows a character/segment counter and warns Note: Special Non-GSM Characters Increases Rate. (ñ, à, ö, -, , ~)*. A Utm tracking section is also available. The message goes to the customer's phone number and is charged from your SMS credits per segment.
The block appears greyed out with a Disabled badge (hover for the reasons) when:
- You don't have phone numbers available! – no active SMS number on the account, or
- You need to comply with US A2P 10DLC Regulations! – for US accounts the SMS campaign registration is not complete.
SMS steps also skip customers whose Receive SMS setting is off, and stop if your SMS plan limit is reached. A one-time pop-up (Did you know you can send a text message (SMS) in these flows?) introduces the feature.
