Integrate customised SMS text messaging to your business communications mix and systems with Text-Connect™ HTTP Gateway and Application Programming Interface.
A HTTP request is the recommended way accessing the Text-Connect™ service from within an application.
Sending a SMS text from within your application is as simple as generating a HTTP request containing the relevant variables, and sending it to the Text-Connect™ API gateway in the form of a HTTP POST or HTTP GET.
Text message forwarding is a standard Text-Connect™ feature* and means that you can develop applications to automatically process your incoming text message traffic. Messages sent to your 2 way account text-number maybe forward to a URL, email or another mobile.
It's simple to configure your Text-Connect™ text-number to forward messages received as a HTTP request to your web domain where your script can process the incoming messages. A second option is to forward your messages to a Pop3 email box and process them from there.
This ability combined with a php / mySQL database gives you huge possibilities for collecting and processing incoming messages.
Add text alerts and updates to your business and keep staff and clients informed and up to date.
Applications include reminders, delivery updates and work instructions.
Text messaging also offers a popular way of adding 2 factor authentification to web site applications.
