This Groovy script is called from an ExpressionRule of type 'Alarm'. For example, in an Expression rule
IF: Alarm.severity > 500
THEN: ExecuteCustomObject("SMSMe", "[numberToSMS]")
calls the script "SMSMe" with the parameter phoneNumber. The ExecuteCustomObject provides a way to call from this simple two-line business rule into a modern programming environment with access to the complete Platform SDK, as well as all the features of the Groovy language. In Groovy, it's straightforward to use the built-in httpclient library to POST an HTTP request to Twilio to send an SMS to the specified cellphone number.
