How would I send an SMS from a Kynetx app?

Question

How would I send an SMS to a user using a Kynetx App and Twilio?

Answer 1

I had to do this manually using Twilio's API. Here is a rule which sends an SMS:

rule send_sms {
  pre {
    SMS_url = <<https://#{keys:twilio().pick("$.account_sid")}:#{keys:twilio().pick("$.auth_token")}@api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/#{keys:twilio().pick("$.account_sid")}/SMS/Messages>>;
  }
   http:post("#{SMS_url}")
     with params = {
       "From":"+18015555555",
       "To":"+18015555555",
       "Body":"Hello World via SMS!"
     };
}
