    Such a great solution for smaller organizations. Are there any size limits/API Rate limits etc. to be aware of. Maximum rows for the spreadsheet.

      I need an answer for this too. I'm doing this for our school's automated attendance checker where when a qr code of a student is scanned, the integration will notify the parents via sms.

    Solved: Replace the line 64: with this line of code - "Authorization": "Basic " + Utilities.base64Encode(TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID+ ":"+ TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN)

      Thank you 🙏🏽 this worked for me.
      The code is basically the same except that I changed the quotation from a single to a double quotation mark
      I still received the same error message as before but right after I received the error message on the sheet, I received a text to both numbers. I had two different numbers.
      I tested each with its own unique message.
      first number received the correct message and second number received its unique message too.
      I will need to find out why I am getting the error message -> Cannot find method getRange(number,number,number,number,number). and yet received the sms

    I have few question: I increased your original google sheet from 3 columns to 8 and was not able to make this work.1) Is there a way to increase the number of columns in the google sheet so I can include other info for the text message and then using the concat function to build a complete message before I send? 2) Can the script used in this "send SMS" be used in a normal excel sheet?

    If you're still getting an error message after following ​ @Troy Shimkus advice I got mine to work by replacing LINE 62 not 64 but I'm using a MAC so I don't if that makes a difference. Hope it helps.
