Step-by-Step Walkthrough
Navigate to the Groups page of the application.
Find the specific group you want to send the text to.
Click on the three dots located on the far right of the group's card.
Select the option to "Create Automation" from the menu.
At the top of the page, ensure the correct group is displayed for the automation.
Select the option to "Create" in the send text message card.
Fill in the message you wish to send.
In the top right corner of the page, click on "Review" in the top right corner (see notes below before you select "review").

Keep the default setting if you want to send the message only once to current group contacts.

If enabling the indefinite option, select how often you want the automation to rerun: daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.
