Grafana sending HTML formatted SMS messages

Can Grafana send plain text messages to SMS? We are using Grafana v12 and want to send SMS messages. I just tested it and the message comes through as html so it’s not readable. We have to use the email contact method as the sms contains are in the format as @sms.company.com so it will format as html I think. I’m not sure what other free option there is.

We created custom docker container to send SMS to Twilio and used Webhook configuration in Grafana

Alternatively to Docker container, you can use Node-Red or Twilio Studio to create your own workflow

You need a 3rd party service like Twilio.

You can also send email as pure text.
