The SMS Alert API on Pipedream allows you to integrate SMS notifications into your workflows. It provides a straightforward method to send text messages, enabling instant communication for alerts, confirmations, or any time-sensitive info. By leveraging Pipedream's serverless platform, you can trigger SMS sends based on a variety of events and connect them to other services for a fully automated process.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
sms_alert: {
type: "app",
app: "sms_alert",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://www.smsalert.co.in/api/user.json`,
params: {
apikey: `${this.sms_alert.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
Customer Order Notifications: Automate order confirmation texts by linking an e-commerce platform like Shopify to SMS Alert. When a new order is placed, trigger a workflow that sends a personalized SMS to the customer, confirming their purchase and providing a tracking number.
Server Downtime Alerts: Set up a monitor that checks your server's health at regular intervals using a cron job on Pipedream. If it detects downtime, it triggers the SMS Alert API to send a text to your IT team, so they can act fast to resolve the issue.
Appointment Reminders: Connect your appointment scheduling software, such as Calendly, to SMS Alert. Create a workflow that sends reminder texts to clients a day before their scheduled appointment, reducing no-shows and improving customer satisfaction.

SMS Alert uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your SMS Alert account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to SMS Alert APIs in both code and no-code steps.
