บทความ
04/19/2023

Important

SMS capabilities depend on the phone number you use and the country/region that you're operating within as determined by your Azure billing address. For more information, see Subscription eligibility.

Get started with Azure Communication Services by using the Communication module in Azure CLI to send SMS messages.

Completing this quickstart incurs a small cost of a few USD cents or less in your Azure account.

Prerequisites

An Azure account with an active subscription. Create an account for free.
An active Communication Services resource and connection string. Create a Communication Services resource.
An SMS-enabled telephone number. Get a phone number.
The latest Azure CLI version for your operating system.

Prerequisite check

In a terminal or command window, run az --version to check that Azure CLI is installed.

Setting up

Install the communication module

Run the following command in a terminal or command window to install the communication module.

az extension add --name communication

You'll need to sign in to Azure CLI. You can sign in running the az login command from the terminal and providing your credentials.

Make sure you're using the correct subscription

If you have multiple subscriptions in your account, make sure that you're using the correct one for this tutorial.

In a terminal or command windows, run the following command to check the current subscription.

az account show

If you need to change subscription, you can do that by running the following command.

az account set --subscription "<yourSubcriptionId>"

You need to replace <yourSubscriptionId> with your actual subscription ID, which you can find in the Subscriptions section in Azure portal.

(Optional) Use Azure CLI sms operations without passing in a connection string

You can configure the AZURE_COMMUNICATION_CONNECTION_STRING environment variable to use Azure CLI sms operations without having to use --connection_string to pass in the connection string. To configure an environment variable, open a console window and select your operating system from the below tabs. Replace <yourConnectionString> with your actual connection string.

Open a console window and enter the following command:

setx AZURE_COMMUNICATION_CONNECTION_STRING "<yourConnectionString>"

After you add the environment variable, you may need to restart any running programs that will need to read the environment variable, including the console window. For example, if you're using Visual Studio as your editor, restart Visual Studio before running the example.

Edit your .zshrc, and add the environment variable:

export AZURE_COMMUNICATION_CONNECTION_STRING="<yourConnectionString>"

After you add the environment variable, run source ~/.zshrc from your console window to make the changes effective. If you created the environment variable with your IDE open, you may need to close and reopen the editor, IDE, or shell in order to access the variable.

Edit your .bash_profile, and add the environment variable:

export AZURE_COMMUNICATION_CONNECTION_STRING="<yourConnectionString>"

After you add the environment variable, run source ~/.bash_profile from your console window to make the changes effective. If you created the environment variable with your IDE open, you may need to close and reopen the editor, IDE, or shell in order to access the variable.

Operations

Send a 1:1 SMS message

To send an SMS message to a single recipient, call the send method from the sms module with a single recipient phone number.

az communication sms send --sender "<fromPhoneNumber>" --recipient "<toPhoneNumber>" --message "Hello world via SMS for Azure CLI!" --connection-string "<yourConnectionString>"

Make these replacements in the code:

Replace <fromPhoneNumber> with an SMS-enabled phone number that's associated with your Communication Services resource.
Replace <toPhoneNumber> with a phone number that you'd like to send a message to.
Replace <yourConnectionString> with your connection string.

Warning

Provide phone numbers in E.164 international standard format, for example, +14255550123. The value for <fromPhoneNumber> can also be a short code, for example, 23456 or an alphanumeric sender ID, for example, CONTOSO.

Send a 1:N SMS message

To send an SMS message to a list of recipients, call the send method from the sms module with multiple recipient phone numbers.

az communication sms send --sender "<fromPhoneNumber>" --recipient "<toPhoneNumber1>" "<toPhoneNumber2>" "<toPhoneNumber3>" --message "Hello world via SMS for Azure CLI!" --connection-string "<yourConnectionString>"

Make these replacements in the code:

Replace <fromPhoneNumber> with an SMS-enabled phone number that's associated with your Communication Services resource.
Replace <toPhoneNumberN> with the N'th phone number that you'd like to send a message to.
Replace <yourConnectionString> with your connection string.

By using the Azure Communication Services SMS connector and Azure Logic Apps, you can create automated workflows that can send SMS messages. This quickstart shows how to automatically send text messages in response to a trigger event, which is the first step in a logic app workflow. A trigger event can be an incoming email message, a recurrence schedule, an Azure Event Grid resource event, or any other trigger that's supported by Azure Logic Apps.

Screenshot that shows the Azure portal, which is open to the Logic App Designer, and shows an example logic app that uses the Send SMS action for the Azure Communication Services connector.

Although this quickstart focuses on using the connector to respond to a trigger, you can also use the connector to respond to other actions, which are the steps that follow the trigger in a workflow. If you're new to Logic Apps, review What is Azure Logic Apps before you get started.

Note

Completing this quickstart incurs a small cost of a few USD cents or less in your Azure account.

Prerequisites

An Azure account with an active subscription, or create an Azure account for free.
An active Azure Communication Services resource, or create a Communication Services resource.
An active Logic Apps resource (logic app), or create a blank logic app but with the trigger that you want to use. Currently, the Azure Communication Services SMS connector provides only actions, so your logic app requires a trigger, at minimum.

This quickstart uses the When a new email arrives trigger, which is available with the Office 365 Outlook connector.
An SMS enabled phone number, or get a phone number.

Important

SMS and PSTN capabilities depend on the phone number you use and the country/region that you're operating within as determined by your Azure billing address. For more information, visit the Subscription eligibility documentation.

Toll-free verification

To use a new toll-free number for sending SMS messages, you must complete a toll-free verification process. For guidance on how to complete the verification of your toll-free number, see the Quickstart for submitting a toll-free verification. Only fully verified toll-free numbers are authorized to send out SMS traffic. Any SMS traffic from unverified toll-free numbers directed to US and CA phone numbers are blocked.
