Varius Message Router Send SMS Integration Programming Code Examples - Varius Technology

An application can communicate with Varius Message Router to send out SMS messages using the following methods:

Using SMTP
Your application points to Varius Message Router as its SMTP server for sending out emails. The email recipients are in the format of @fluidsms.com. The content of the email message will be the SMS message.

Code examples:
C# C++ Java Perl PHP Python VB.Net

Using HTTP
Your application accesses a custom URL in Varius Message Router to send out SMS messages using HTTP GET.

The format of the custom URL is

http://<%ip_address%>/pages/sendmsg.aspx?user=<%username%>&password=<%password%>&to=<%recipient_mobile_no%>&text=<%sms_text%>

Code examples:
C# C++ Java Perl PHP Python VB.Net
