&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="user-name"&gt;I would recommend you to check the two Plugins what Mathieu has mentioned and also try using APIs from service providers such as Twilio,&amp;nbsp;Telesign etc. Here is a list of service providers and other information that might be helpful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://rapidapi.com/collection/free-sms-apis"&gt;SMS APIs &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: How to send a Text message to non-Appian users</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/124201?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jan 2024 23:44:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:4a835035-509a-4259-83a4-a9f89537e033</guid><dc:creator>Mathieu Drouin</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;There are two plugins/connected systems available on the App Market:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are also other services available. The plugins add a layer of convenience but you can also just use regular connected systems and integrations to connect to the services.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
