How to connect Smsapi and Motion
Create a New Scenario to Connect Smsapi and Motion
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 Smsapi, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Smsapi or Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Smsapi or Motion, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Smsapi, Motion, 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 Smsapi and Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Smsapi and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Smsapi and Motion
Motion + Google Sheets + Smsapi: When motion is detected, the event is logged in a Google Sheet with a timestamp, and an SMS alert is sent to the user.
Motion + RingCentral + Smsapi: If motion is detected and a new call comes in via RingCentral, a text message is sent to alert the user.
