What you can do

  • Send a text from your own number as a step in any Zap with BlueBot’s Send Text action.
  • Start a Zap when someone texts you back with BlueBot’s New Incoming Text trigger.
  • Rerun a Zap without texting anyone twice, because Send Text sends an idempotency key built from the Zap, the step and its input.
  • Pass a reply to any app Zapier connects, such as a sheet, a CRM or a help desk.

How it connects

  • Zapier

    BlueBot’s Zapier app has a Send Text action and instant triggers for incoming texts and every change of state.
