New Telstra Component

I have the new Telstra component up and running from @nvella and everything is working.

Each time I receive a notification it seems to come from a different number - is it a limitation of the free tier or is it possible to set the from number or name somewhere and make it consistent?

I used the SMS API when creating the app at dev.telstra.com.

Hi there,

Unfortunately I don’t think there is anything that can be done at the moment regarding the number issue, the API seems to pick a random number from their pool for every message. As far as I know, it’s like this on every API tier.

I read somewhere that Telstra is looking into adding the ability to pick a number, but I’m not sure when that feature is going to arrive. I’ve been thinking about maybe getting in contact with them.

Thank you. I can stop trying random things now!

And thanks for the component too.
