ESP32 CAM and GSM

[barnis]

Hello all. i have been researching options to create an ESP32CAM-based Arduino solution for water meter reading. I've found quite a few great projects with lots of maturity. Unfortunately all that i have found is code which assumes a WIFI connection and I am looking for a hardware solution which can use a GSM Shield to send data either as SMS test, data text, MMS Image, or data images. I can't determine if this is easily done and if there are any good examples or tutorials which might be able to guide me. Any help would be appreciated!
