# neuron_create_sms_campaign

Create a draft SMS campaign. Choose the audience via sourceType: 'all_contacts' or 'contact_list' (your own contacts), 'phones' (bring your own list — raw numbers you pass in), 'platform' (the wider Neuron audience — budget required, sent over the bulk campaign route), or 'curated' (SMS-opted-in marketplace lists via poolEntryIds; the list owner earns ₦2/contact). After creating, call neuron_estimate_sms_campaign to price it, then neuron_send_sms_campaign. Requires SMS to be enabled by an admin and a configured provider.
