Overview
This node operation creates a new SMS or WhatsApp message draft in Missive. It allows users to compose message content, specify sender and recipients by phone numbers, choose message type (SMS or WhatsApp), and optionally send the message immediately or close the conversation after sending. Additional options include threading references, conversation details, team and organization scoping, scheduling, adding users or assignees, managing labels, enabling auto follow-up, and attaching files. This node is useful for automating messaging workflows, sending notifications, or managing conversations via SMS or WhatsApp within Missive.
