Learn how to receive MMS messages with Zendesk Text and alternatives for sending images.

Can I send and receive MMS messages with Zendesk Text?

You can receive MMS messages with Zendesk Text, but not send them. Zendesk Text supports receiving inbound MMS messages on American and Canadian numbers. However, it does not support sending outbound MMS messages. As a workaround, you can send SMS messages with a URL to an internet-hosted image. Make sure to use unique URLs to avoid spam filters blocking your messages. For more details, check out the originalZendesk article.
