Integrate SMS with Phare
Set up the Phare SMS integration to receive a message on your phone when your website or server is down.
When email just won’t cut it and you need alerts that grab attention immediately, the SMS integration delivers critical notifications straight to your phone. Configure it in the integration section of your dashboard.
Phone number validation
For security and to prevent misuse, each team member needs to verify their phone number before receiving alerts. It’s simple, just visit the user settings page and follow the verification steps.
Configuration
You can include up to 25 team members in each SMS integration. When searching for team members, you’ll see instantly who has a verified phone number ready to go. Don’t worry if someone hasn’t verified their number yet, you can still add them, and they’ll start receiving alerts once they complete verification.
Receiving SMS
When an alert triggers, your configured team members will receive a text message from the Phare originator, which is a special sender ID that identifies the message as coming from Phare.
