Steps to Use ClickSend with
PageGate
Steps to Send Text and SMS Messages to ClickSend
PageGate can be easily configured to pass messages through ClickSend's service by using ClickSend's REST API to pass HTTP POST requests. Here's what you'll want to do:
1) Run PageGate Admin.
2) Right click Carriers, select 'Add'.
3) Set the following:
Name: ClickSend
Protocol: HTTPPOST
Host: rest.clicksend.com/v3/sms/send
Port: 443
MaxChars: 2000
4) Click Apply
5) Go to Carriers - ClickSend - Template
6) Specify the following in the 'Text' section:
|Authorization|Basic Your username and API key in base64. See ClickSend documentation for more information|
|Content-Type|application/json|
{
"messages": [
{
"to": "%RecipientId%",
"source": "sdk",
"body": "%Message%"
}
]
}
8) Click Apply
Now that we've told PageGate how to communicate with ClickSend, you'll need to add recipients you want to message. Here's how:
1) In PG Admin, right click Recipients and select 'Add'.
2) Give the recipient a name.
3) Set the Carrier to: ClickSend
4) Enter the phone number in international format (example: +17818290500) in the ID/PIN field. You can also modify the 'to' line in the carrier template to include a static country code, that way you can just put the phone number in the recipient's ID/PIN field.
Carrier Template Example: "to": "+1%RecipientId%"
5) Click Apply.
