Overview
The node integrates with the TouchBasePro API to send bulk SMS messages. It allows users to send multiple SMS messages in one operation, each potentially customized with a different recipient phone number, message content, and optional sender ID. This is useful for marketing campaigns, notifications, alerts, or any scenario where sending personalized SMS messages to many recipients simultaneously is required.
For example, a business can use this node to send promotional offers to a list of customers, or an application can notify multiple users about system updates via SMS.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Messages | A collection of SMS messages to send. Each message includes: |
| - Phone Number: The recipient's phone number in international format (e.g., +1234567890). Required. | |

| - Sender ID: Optional identifier shown as the sender of the SMS (if supported). |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each representing the result of sending an individual SMS message. The exact structure depends on the TouchBasePro API response but typically includes status information such as success/failure, message IDs, or error details.
The node does not output binary data.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the TouchBasePro API.
- The node must be configured with valid TouchBasePro API credentials in n8n.
- Network access to the TouchBasePro service endpoint is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Phone Number Format: Ensure phone numbers include the country code and are formatted correctly (e.g., +1234567890).
- Missing Required Fields: Both phone number and message content are mandatory for each SMS entry.
- API Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
- Rate Limits or Quotas: Sending large volumes of SMS may hit service limits; check your TouchBasePro account quotas.
- Operation Not Implemented Error: This occurs if the resource or operation parameters are incorrect or unsupported; ensure "SMS" resource and "Send Bulk Messages" operation are selected.
