Send a message to someone?

Questions & Answers
1

I want to send output of one of my scenarios to my significant other’s phone.

I can’t find a good communication channel for doing so in Make - presumably, there are privacy considerations that go with allowing mass automated messaging.

But my case is a simple one-to-one, permitted scenario.

I don’t see straightforward options for SMS, Apple Messages, Twitter DMs etc. Sure, I could use Gmail - but I want the thing to pop up on her screen.

Any thoughts?

Hi @RobertAndrews

What about Telegram?

I am using it to monitor some online sevices and as soon as the scenario hits the trigger, I recevie a message via Telegram.

Neither the end recipient nor I use Telegram.

Twilio is fantastic. You can send messages for less than 1c per message. You can top up an account and auto refill and even test before you go into production.

Twilio can do a lot including process inbound messages and send webhooks based on an inbound response back to make.
