Has anyone successfully connected to the MPP Global service as an aggregator using http? If so, can you please provide the URL template for both the URL Template text and URL Template binary? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Chris | |||

Hi Chris, I thought they offered an SMPP service...that's usually a better way to go when available. Based upon their specs, I'd suggest the following templates: text: /SMSSend?user=username&pass=password&smsfrom=@@SENDER@@&smsto=@@PhoneNumber@@&sm smsg=@@Text@@ binary: /SMSSend?user=username&pass=password&smsfrom=@@SENDER@@&smsto=@@PhoneNumber@@&sm sudh=@@UDH@@&smsdata=@@Data@@ | |||

Bryce - Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, although Now SMS seemed to think it could verify the http connection, it was not able to send to the messages through the service with that setup. I was able to connect and send through them with the following URL: http://www.mppsms.com/SMSSend?user=USERNAMEpass=PASSWORD&smsto=12035430296&smsfr om=DataViz&pushtype=1&push_href=http%3A%2F%2Fdownload.dataviz.com%2Ftest.SIS&pus h_siname=Download+from+DataViz+Now When I look at the SMS out log in the Now SMS program files directory I see the following entries: 2004-09-07 10:55:03,413DC87B.req,172.16.2.181,12035430296,Retry Pending - HTTPSMSC: Connection failed, HTTP status code = 400. -- HTTP - www.mppsms.com:80 If my memory serves a 400 error is an invalid request so I am assuming the templates are incorrect. Any other thoughts/suggestion? Thanks, Chris | |||

Chris, Apologies for the delay in reply. I was on vacation last week, and my tech backups were overwhelmed enough dealing with other inquiries. I'd suggest enabling the debug log to find out more. Edit SMSGW.INI, and under the [SMSGW] header, add Debug=Yes. Then restart the SMS gateway service. Repeat your sending attempt, and then look in the SMSDEBUG.LOG and you will see what the URL request is that we are issuing. Looking at the URL that we are generating might explain what is wrong with the template. | |||

Roopa, The Now SMS/MMS Gateway is a software product. NowSMS is not a bulk SMS service provider, and it is not a replacement for an SMS service provider. You will need a subscription to an SMS service provider, or a GSM modem, in order to send messages with NowSMS. | |||

Bryce: Thanks for the suggestion. I was able to get this working by using the debug logging as you suggested. It was missing one parameter in the template. So for future reference the correct templates for http for MPP Global and Now SMS are: Text: /SMSSend?user=account_id&pass=password&smsfrom=@@SENDER@@&smsto=@@PhoneNumber@@& smsmsg=@@Text@@ Binary: /SMSSend?user=account_id&pass=password&smsfrom=@@SENDER@@&smsto=@@PhoneNumber@@& smsmsg=@@Text@@&smsudh=@@UDH@@&smsdata=@@Data@@ Thanks again, Chris | |||
