Adafruit IO Update: SMS Actions

BzzBzzzz… It’s Adafruit IO texting you! We’ve deployed an update to Adafruit IO‘s Actions which allows Adafruit IO to send feed values to you via SMS! This update works with all three types of Adafruit IO Actions: Reactive Actions, Scheduled Actions, and Timer Actions (new!). Actions work with Adafruit IO WipperSnapper so you can create an IoT project which sends SMS messages without programming!

Using Reactive Actions, you can now receive a text message if a feed receives a certain value. The body of the text message can also be templated out to include the feed’s name, value, timestamp, latitude, longitude, and elevation:

You can also create a Scheduled Action to send an SMS with the current value of a feed at a scheduled, recurring, time:

SMS Action triggers are only available for users with an active Adafruit IO Plus account. Each Adafruit IO Plus account is allocated 25 SMS messages per day (UTC) to use across all their actions.

If you are experiencing issues with this new feature, please post up in the Adafruit IO Forums.
