Element body

The message text.

  <Say>We just texted you the link.</Say>

Attributes

Attribute Default Behaviour
to required E.164 destination number.
from unset Sending number. Falls back to the call's caller ID, then per-number routing, then the account default.
action unset Parsed and validated, but the action request is not yet dispatched. Message delivery state is visible on the Messages REST resource.
method POST Parsed; applies when action dispatch lands.
statusCallback unset Parsed and validated, but the status callback is not yet dispatched.

Notes

  • The call continues to the next verb regardless of send outcome. Every send creates a Message record (SM-prefixed identifier) queryable over REST.
  • <Sms> is the legacy spelling; <Message> is the modern equivalent on the same send path.
