This is a Splunk Modular Alert for sending SMS messages using Twilio.
You require an activation key to use this App. Visit http://www.baboonbones.com/#activation to obtain a non-expiring key
You will need a Twilio account to use this Modular Alert.
You can sign up at twilio.com
Once your Twilio account is setup you will then be able to obtain your Auth Token and Account SID from your profile.
To enter these values in Splunk , just browse to Settings -> Alert Actions -> Twilio SMS Alerts -> Setup Twilio SMS Alerting
Perform a search in Splunk and then navigate to : Save As -> Alert -> Trigger Actions -> Add Actions -> Twilio SMS Alerts
On this dialogue you can enter your "from number", "to number" and "SMS message"
"to number" can also be a comma delimited list of numbers
For the SMS message field , token substitution can be used just the same as for email alerts.
