Connect Google (this is not Sign in with Google)

Canonical guide page

Store a refresh token so SplitSMS can call Contacts, Sheets, Drive, and Forms after you approve scopes.

For Anyone using Google features

  1. 1

    Know the difference

    Sign in with Google logs you into SplitSMS. Connect Google is a separate OAuth grant under Dashboard → Integrations → Google. It lets SplitSMS read Contacts, Sheets/Drive, and Forms after you approve the scopes.

  2. 2

    Connect

    Open Dashboard → Integrations → Google → Connect Google. Grant base identity first. Extra Contacts, Sheets, or Forms scopes are requested when a feature needs them.

  3. 3

    Use a feature

    Import Contacts, browse Drive Sheets, wire Google Forms → SMS, or export Smart Forms to Sheets. Messages still use your SplitSMS wallet and Sender ID.

  4. 4

    Disconnect anytime

    Disconnect removes the refresh token. Feature configs stay on the account, but API calls fail until you reconnect.

Quick answers

Is the How to page the same as Documentation?
No. How to is step-by-step for operators: Send SMS, WordPress, reports, Smart Forms, and Google. Documentation is the full platform reference, including API schemas and troubleshooting tables.
Do I need WordPress to use Smart Forms?
No. Smart Forms are hosted on SplitSMS. Share a link, QR, or embed. The WordPress plugin is for WooCommerce and WordPress form builders on your own site.
Is Connect Google the same as Sign in with Google?
No. Sign in logs you into SplitSMS. Connect Google stores a refresh token so Contacts, Sheets, Drive, and Forms automations can run after you approve scopes.
Where do I see if an SMS was delivered?
Dashboard → Message results for each message. Campaign pages show totals. My reports summarises a date range. WordPress also syncs delivery into SplitSMS → Logs.
