Restaurant managers often need staff to notice schedule changes before the next shift, not after checking the roster. 7shifts can trigger a Zap when a schedule is published, a user is created, or a user is reactivated. Mobile Message can then send an SMS to the relevant worker or team contact, giving the change a more visible channel.

This can help operators notify staff when a new or modified schedule is published, welcome a newly created user, or remind a reactivated user about returning work. Events such as User Deactivated and Payroll Period Closed can also start a message where a manager needs an alert. The exact recipient and message depend on the fields available from 7shifts and the rules you set in Zapier.

The connection runs through Zapier and is one-directional for each selected workflow. 7shifts provides the staffing event, while Mobile Message sends the SMS. It does not maintain a live copy of staff records or schedules in Mobile Message, but it can make important operational events easier to notice.
