Just wondering whether any of you have integrated WebGUI with an SMS sending service for sending single or mass SMS.

If so, is there an asset and templates for doing this. I have seen that several SMS services offer web service integration.

Hi Salamsk,

I've never done it, but it doesn't seem that hard. (oh, that might be a dangerous thought)

Many sms providers not only provide sms as web service, but also via an http-request or a simple email. I know of one that has a PERL module to access it's service. You could write a workflow that does an http request or sends an email or a SOAP call or something else and let the workflow be triggered on some action that requires an sms to be sent.

There's also a web-services client asset in WebGUI. You would think you could use it to allow your users to send an sms from your site. The most usefull cases - I guess - are those where an sms is sent in response to another event than a click from a user, such as a certain time. "It's time to vote!" In that case a workflow seems the most logical thing to use. (I don't believe there is one now, btw.)

Kind regards,

Arjan Widlak
