• Number (required) — Recipient phone number in international format (with prefix, e.g., 447820125799) or national number accompanied by ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g., 7820125799 + GB).
• Text (required) — Text content of the SMS message, UTF-8 encoded, up to 612 characters (or 268 if Unicode). Supports templated variables referenced in the Variables input.
• Variables — Optional collection of variable name-value pairs to dynamically replace placeholders within the message text.
• Country — Country code in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 format to assist in resolving the recipient number's format and routing. Defaults to 'CZ' if unset.

• Sender ID Value — Custom sender value corresponding to the chosen Sender ID type, such as a phone number or text string.

• Schedule — Optional scheduled send time/date specified as a Unix timestamp or ISO 8601 string.
• Duplicates Check — Option to enable or disable deduplication of messages sent to the same number with identical text within 5 minutes to prevent duplicates. Defaults to 'off'.
