SMS Gateway - Intelli Messaging
The Intelli Messaging SMS Gateway delivers SMS messages internationally.
Incoming Messages/Replies
You can get incoming messages/replies to your Intelli Messaging number into the fmSMS file in 2 ways:
- Manually Download Incoming Messages
- Use Webhooks to have Intelli Messaging push these automatically to fmSMS
Using Webhooks is the preferred method as it saves you from having to poll/check for any new messages - with Webhooks new messages are forward to fmSMS automatically by Intelli Messaging as they are received.
Manual Download Incoming Messages
You can download incoming messages manually via the Account Details screen. To check and download any new messages click the Get Incoming Messages button:
Any incoming messages to your Intelli Messaging number that have not been previously downloaded will then be downloaded. You could also setup a FileMaker Server script schedule to have this run on a scheduled basis (e.g.every hour) to save you from having to manually download/check for new messages.
Intelli Messaging Webhooks Setup
To receive incoming SMS messages to your Intelli Messaging number, including replies to previously sent messages, you will need to use the supplied dedicatedNumberReply.php webhook file to act as the webhook receiver. See our Webhooks guide for what you need to do host the dedicatedNumberReply.php file on your chosen web server. Once you have the publicly accessible URL for this file contact Intelli Messaging with the URL so they can update your account settings.
