When I use the code I cloned from the repository and run sls deploy, it produces this

"cmdlet Select-String at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
Path[0]: "

All the time, I am getting an error in the cloudwatch i.e "Sandboxed account unable to send to number.", Now if I verify the number (In the SNS => Mobile => Text Messaging(SMS) => Sandbox destination phone numbers) only then I am getting the SMS, So, my question is there any other way to receive the SMS in any phone number ?

Thanks for the video. But has anyone ever wondered why SMS is so darn expensive? You can literally send huge contents over the internet for cheap, but plain unsecured text seems to be this expensive per sms. Why is that?
