Then I found someone had improved on their script with some lines of code on a FileMaker Today Forum post. Your iPhone permissions need to be configured properly (see the Hi Voltage article for more detailed setup instructions). One blog post from Hi Voltage in Australia had a demo file that had the basics in place, but it didn’t generate a text message. I found two sources for using the url method in FileMaker online. This method could also work in a networked setup, it is send only, any responses are not going to show up in FileMaker magically. What I was looking for though, was a free and non-server based option, something that could be done from a standalone database on a Mac computer or an iPhone in the field. There are a number of ways to do send SMS messages from a FileMaker database, including using an API service such as Twillo or Claris Connect. A friend had figured out how to get the dial url working in FileMaker (a sample of this is also in the demo file) and was wondering how sending an SMS file might work.
