With the release of PageGate's filter pack, it's possible to format messages completely differently for recipients and groups that need it. Often times, when you use a third party message aggregator like Active911, I Am Responding, Infobip, Clickatel, The Fire Horn and similar, those services need messages formatted in a very specific and static way. Due to their message parsing requirements, most will need the same number of fields in the same exact position for every message sent.
When integrating PageGate with a CAD system. It is easy to pass that static information to your message aggregator but the message can look a bit messy if you want to send it to a regular cell phone, pager or email address. With PageGate's new filter pack, you can now have the messages retain their original format for your message aggregator and be formatted completely differently for your normal recipients.
For example, let's say you're using a CAD system that uses a format like this:
Line1= Dispatched Unit
Line2= Call Type
Line3= Address
Line4= Cross Street
You would definitely want to retain that formatting for Active911, IAR, etc, as that format is incredibly easy for their parser to handle. However, when sending to your normal recipients, you could reformat the message without the extra characters:
Dispatched Unit
Call Type
Address
Cross Street
