### Answer Since your campaign is approved, here are the next steps to get SMS conversations working: 1. Attach a Chat Agent to Your Number Once SMS capability is enabled, you need to attach a chat agent to the phone number. [(1) ]() The number will then be able to receive SMS and reply back to users. 2. For Inbound SMS After attaching the chat agent, inbound SMS should work automatically. You can optionally use the inbound webhook to filter and add context to inbound SMS messages. 3. For Outbound SMS You have two options: - Click the "Make an outbound SMS" button in the dashboard - Use the [Create Outbound SMS API]() to programmatically send messages Common Issues to Check: - If using a toll-free number with your own Twilio account, ensure the number is added to a Twilio Messaging Service [(2) ]() - If using Telnyx, note that SMS is not currently supported for Telnyx numbers [(3) ]() - Verify that
