In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a OneSignal, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, OneSignal or Smsapi will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OneSignal or Smsapi, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring OneSignal, Smsapi, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the OneSignal and Smsapi integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OneSignal 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 OneSignal and Smsapi
OneSignal + Smsapi + Twilio: When a new notification is created in OneSignal, if the user doesn't open it within a day, retrieve the user's phone number (assumed to be stored as a OneSignal user property), and send them an SMS message using Smsapi. If Smsapi fails, use Twilio to deliver the SMS.
OneSignal + Smsapi + Google Sheets: When a new notification is created in OneSignal, log the campaign data in a Google Sheet. After sending an SMS via Smsapi following OneSignal's push, log the SMS delivery status in the same Google Sheet, updating it with relevant delivery and open rates.
