Describe the problem/error/question
I want to send a SMS directly to a number with the AWS SNS node.
With apprise I can directly send one:
With n8n I only have the option to publish something to a topic. But that’s not what I want to do.
How can I do that with n8n? Thanks!
What is the error message (if any)?

hi @Zoker
Unfortunately that seems to be the only supported operation as per our docs, have you tried usnig an http request directly as suggested here: AWS SNS node documentation | n8n Docs
Hope this helps!
