# Elements of the flow - Send fax

The element `Send Fax` allows you to send a PDF as a fax from the flow. An example would be to send the alarm details. These can be included via the element [Merge strings](https://docs.groupalarm.com/en/article/elements-of-the-flow-merge-strings-3js0s5/).

**Configuration**

1️⃣ One or more phone numbers can be stored in the input field for the recipient.

|| ⚠️ Please note the correct format of the phone number. See the example below the input field.

2️⃣ In the input field for the PDF, either a URL to a PDF can be entered directly or obtained from previous elements via the input function (rectangular symbol).
