You can use Message API in PowerAutomate. However please note that it requires a Premium version of PowerAutomate as the HTTP action is not included in the standard plan.
First step: Create the action to send a SMS.
To trigger a SMS via PowerAutomate you will need to an action named "HTTP". You can find it in the list of actions :
Second step: Add the details for the action parameters.
Once that the action has been added, you will have to configure the parameters :
- URI: https://api.ringring.be/sms/v1/message for real message or https://api.ringring.be/sms/sandbox/message if you want to try it in Sandbox mode first
- Method: POST
- Headers : Content-Type : application/json
- Body: { "apiKey": "APIKEYRINGRING", "to": "XXXXXXXX", "message": "Send messages in text" }
You will have to adapt the body with your own information :
- APIKEYRINGRING should be replaced by the ApiKey from our portal.
- XXXXXXXX should be replaced by the recipient number.
- Text in the message: Your own message.
Third step: Add dynamic data from previous triggers / actions of PowerAutomate to the parameters.
You will have to use the data from previous steps or from your trigger to automatically be included in the messages / recipient.
Here is an example from which we use the data from previous actions in the flow :
PhoneNumber, FirstName and Date.
In this case we will send a SMS to "PhoneNumber" with the text : "Hello XXXXXX you have an appointment on YYYYY" where XXXXXX and YYYYY have their own values based on previous actions / triggers.
To add one of those dynamic fields, click on this icon next when you are in the body :
It will open a popup window with the list of available dynamic content.
