How do I check my TextLink credit balance?
Short answer: You can get account balance in TextLink by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the TextLink Get Account Balance action to a workflow, map its 0 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ
Questions about Get Account Balance.
What does the Get Account Balance action do in TextLink?
Returns the current TextLink account balance, useful for low-balance alerts before a campaign send.
What inputs does Get Account Balance require?
Get Account Balance has no required inputs. Sensible defaults are applied if you leave fields blank.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if TextLink returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message TextLink returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Get Account Balance support batch operations?
Run Get Account Balance inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within TextLink's rate limits.
