Use the 'Software Developer' edition of text-connect to add SMS functionality to your software applications.

Software developers can easily include sms text messaging functionality in to their applications in most programming environments with the text-connect HTTP gateway.

Sending via HTTP from within your application is as simple as generating a HTTP request that contains the relevant variables and sending them to the text-connect gateway. This can be in the form of a HTTP POST or GET.

Enable your application with 2 way text messaging and receive incoming text messages via optional 'text numbers'. Your 'text number' can be set-up almost instantly forward incoming sms text messages to your application via a URL or email address, specified by you. From there it's easy to manage and process incoming messages in your favourite programming environment.

ALL '2-way' packages with a Text-Number include message forwarding to a http address. You specify the URL to which incoming messages are forwarded eg.

http://your.url.com/page.ext?source=447...&dest=447...&msg=body&id=id

which lets you process your incoming messages as you wish.
