Text Message

The Text Message dialog provides the following fields for defining a notification to a pager, phone, or other SMS-capable device.

• To (Required): Defines the SMTP email address(es) or an address(es) for an SMS-capable device. Separate addresses with semicolons (;). The maximum for this field is 3,000 characters. Some examples of SMS-capable devices may include:
  • AT&T Wireless - phonenumber@txt.att.net
  • T-Mobile - phonenumber@tmomail.net
  • Sprint - phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
  • Verizon - phonenumber@vtext.com
• Message (Required): Defines a user-defined message up to 160 characters.

note

The SMA Notify Handler will insert a Notification ID using the format ID=nnn before any other information in the message so users can look up the source of a notification. For more information, refer to Looking up Notification Sources.

The resulting message contains only the user-defined message.
