# curl -H "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" \
# "https://api.smsapi.com/sms.do?from=sender_name&to=44123456789&message=message_content&format=json"

# Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
# Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

# Adds the "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" header.
$http.AuthToken = "token_api_oauth"
