title: Sending SMS with Amazon AWS services PHP
body: <p>I'm having trouble digging through the documentation for Amazon's AWS PHP-sdk.</p>
  
  <p>Basically, I just need to send a standard text message to a number. I know it is possible because amazon allows you to send messages through the console directly via this screen:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/gmaip.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/gmaip.png" alt="Amazon Console SMS"></a></p>
  
  <p>It says something about using the "publish" method, but looking through that documentation really didn't provide any answers. <a href="http://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-sdk-php/v2/api/class-Aws.Sns.SnsClient.html#_publish" rel="noreferrer">#Publish documentation link</a></p>
  
  <p>Any help or guidance is appreciated. I am currently looking for a solution that uses <strong>V2</strong> of the sdk.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
