otps.sms.send wraps the Send SMS OTP endpoint. Call this method to send an SMS passcode to an existing . If a Member has a phone number and is enrolled in MFA, then after a successful primary authentication event (e.g. email magic link authenticate or SSO authenticate is complete), an SMS OTP will automatically be sent to their phone number. In that case, this endpoint should only be used for subsequent authentication events, such as prompting a Member for an OTP again after a period of inactivity.
