Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Outlook and Smsapi (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Microsoft Outlook and Smsapi
Microsoft Outlook + Twilio + Smsapi: Upon receiving a new email in Outlook, the flow checks for urgency. If urgent, a text message is sent via Twilio, leveraging Smsapi for potential fallback if Twilio fails.
Smsapi + Microsoft Outlook + Google Sheets: When a text message is received via Smsapi, the flow logs the message details (sender, content, timestamp) in a Google Sheet. Additionally, the message content is forwarded to a specified Outlook email address.
