Operation Information

Hornbill Integration Bridge method for sending SMS messages to groups using the TextAnywhere Gateway.

See the TextAnywhere SMS API Documentation for more information about the input parameters for this operation: https://developers.textanywhere.com/?_ga=2.191705774.523741013.1657789993-1927333144.1657789990#send-an-sms-message-to-a-group.

This is a Premium Integration.

Authentication

This operation requires authentication, the details of which can be securely stored on your instance in a KeySafe Key of type TextAnywhere.

To create a key of this type:

  • In the Configuration area of your Hornbill instance, navigate to Platform Configuration > Security > KeySafe;
  • Click on the + Create New Key button;
  • On the resulting Create New Key form, choose TextAnywhere in the Type pick list;
  • Give the TextAnywhere KeySafe key a Title (this is the name / identifier for the TextAnywhere account as you will see it when using the cloud automation node in your workflows);
  • Optionally populate the Description field;
  • Populate the following fields accordingly, then click the Create Key button to create your new key:
Name Type Description
User ID string Client/User ID
User API Password string Client/User API Password

Revoking Access

If at any point you wish to revoke access to any of the above accounts from your Hornbill instance, just delete the relevant KeySafe key(s) from the KeySafe list.

Warning

This will revoke the rights of any existing Cloud Automation Node in your Hornbill Workflows that are using the revoked TextAnywhere account, so you will need to manage these workflows accordingly.
