US Account - Is there a way using Ring Central to schedule text messages to send at a future date and time? We would like to schedule text messages to go out over the weekend when we're not in the office.

Thank you!

It definitely should be added. I'd love to be able to schedule texts to my clients at my convenience so it shows up at the right time during business hours at future dates I specify. That would be game changing.

@jennifer-miller @danno @Michael Hohenberg @Anirban The game changer is here with automated and schedule text message with usesendit.com. Send it is a brand new software that works with Ring Central to make automated texting easy. Take a look below of how easy it is to use. If you are interested in using SendIt please email us at sales@usesendit.com

There is no automated or scheduled message feature currently. You need to create your own custom app on top of RC sms API, put scheduler to achieve it.

example: ScheduledExecutorService in Java, Poll scheduler in MuleSoft or TaskScheduler in C# can solve this issue with RC API

Nope. You'll need to use a full service SMS provider for those types of features.
