Hello everyone In this article I am going to discuss how you can send SMS using python. It is going to be a very short article.

For this purpose, we are going to use text local API. For that, you have to create an account in textlocal.

On a trial basis, you will get 10 messages for free. And also if you want to purchase the SMS bundle you can purchase it from there.

According to my observation, it is the cheapest and best in terms of performance.

Here is the link to the pricing textlocal pricing.

Once you create your account and get the API key from the settings.

Here is the code to send SMS from your python script.

In the above code replace <TEXTLOCAL_API_KEY> with your API key.

And the default username will be TXTLCL.

Note — The code in this article is taken from the official site of textlocal.

So hope you have found this article informative.
