  • 1.  Unable to send outbound SMS

    Posted 06-30-2022 07:56
    Hi,

    I am trying to send an outbound SMS on behalf of a queue. Even after entering the queue name and end user contact, the chat button is grayed out. Am I doing anything wrong here.


    Thank You

    Hi 
    Following with interest
    The only way I can get this to work is if the "to" number is in contacts, otherwise if I open the dial pad and enter the number I have the same issue.

    Hi Philip,

    I think I found the trick to initiate and OB SMS from the dial pad. After adding the "on behalf queue", enter the number by typing directly or using Dialpad and hit enter. That should activate the message icon. Let me know if that works for You.

    Thank You
