Usage

Send SMS

Pick a content type in the seven dashboard widget. Every record with a mobile-number field will receive the message.

Make text-to-speech calls

Use the same widget but switch the message type to Voice. The recipient will receive an automated call reading out the text.

Message placeholders

Any content-type field can be referenced inside the message body via {{fieldname}}:

Hi {{name}}, your order is on its way!

Make sure the value has a __toString() representation - there is no type-coercion magic.
