Hi Udit, 

There's nothing inbuilt for SMS or call , you have to connect to a 3rd party service/app somehow for SMS only 
For 3rd party thing you can refer - send-sms-using-blue-prism

Hi Udit,

There is a third party service called as Twilio where you need to create an account and buy a dedicated service number. The charges depend on various countries and the plans differ. But what you can do with this that you can both send sms and even voice mails to any number that you want leveraging the API calls. In order to know more about Twilio, refer to the following link: https://www.twilio.com/

Also, I did a lot of POC' s last year around this functionality and even created videos on my YouTube channel showcasing the use case: Stock Notifier Process Using Blueprism


Hope it helps you out and if my solution resolves your query, then please provide a big thumbs up so that the others members in the community having similar problem statement can track the answer easily in future.

I am sharing my experience on this  topic.
We had large Volume SMS Quota on BOT ID. and when sending exception in send mail we are adding phone number like this
+91Phonenumber@sms.company name and delivered exception on Mobile.
and this do not require any integration.
