It would be good to have a database journal for NowSMS. However, is there a specific tool or approach that you advise to export the In/Out journal real-time to a database? HTTP 2-way could be an option. However, what is the alternative to do this as a different backgroud service? | |||

Hi Matthew, The accounting callbacks are the solution that we recommend. These are HTTP based callbacks, similar to the 2-way mechanism ... but different in that they are designed to provide information for external accounting/billing/journaling. There are basically four different types of callback for SMS messaging, which provide similar information to what you see in the logs. They are all sent via an HTTP URL with GET style URL parameters. Here are the four types: SMSSend PreAuth - Before NowSMS accepts a message from a client, it asks for permission. SMSSend - Records that a message has been accepted from a client. SMSOut - Records that a message has been submitted to an upstream SMSC. SMSIn - Records that a message has been received from an upstream SMSC. The best documentation on SMSSend and Pre-Auth formats can be found here: http://www.nowsms.com/dynamic-sms-message-routing-with-http-callbacks The best documentation on SMSIn and SMSOut formats can be found here: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/69916.html -- Des NowSMS Support |
