Syntax in sending a Text Message

So most of our new hires are all "texters", so I am trying to get it figured out.
I have looked around and have a portion of it built. BUT...
What would be the texting equivalent of the email subject line and body similar to below?

&"?subject=INFORMATION NEEDED TO ACTIVATE YOUR CARD"
&"&body="&"Welcome Aboard "&[Associate First Name]&"!"

I have not been able to find anything that will create these for me

  • Are you asking how to get QuickBase to send a text instead of an email?

      Hey Mark, hope you are well....
      Yes, that was/is what I am hoping to do without further expense of add-ons.
      The app will spawn the email (text message) and I have sent it to myself. 
      What I have not figure out is how to tell it to create the a subject line, or body

        Hans, sorry but I'm still not understanding.  Are you saying that you managed to get Quickbase to send a text without an add on and without using a Pipeline?  

        Also a SMS text does not have a subject and a body.  It just carries a 160 character message and perhaps an attachment.
