How to Connect to the SMS Gateway
Overview
There are 2 principal ways to connect to the MX Telecom SMS Gateway. Depending on your needs, it may be even desirable to use a combination. For more information on what would be the best solution, please contact us.
1. Direct Technical Interface
The MX Telecom SMS Gateway provides an HTTP and an SMPP technical interface. Messages can be sent from anywhere by making requests to MX Telecom servers over the Internet. Use of a technical interface is more appropriate for partners who have, or aim to design, their own applications for sending and receiving SMS.
- The HTTP interface is the most common, and as such is highly recommended if you are new to the SMS Gateway. More details on the HTTP interface can be found here.
- The SMPP interface is sometimes suited for high volume traffic, as it is a very streamlined protocol, having been developed specifically for SMS. More details on the SMPP interface can be found here.
