SMS Gateway - Burst SMS

The Burst SMS SMS Gateway delivers SMS messages internationally.

Incoming Messages/Replies

You can get incoming messages/replies to your Burst SMS number into the fmSMS file via the use of Webhooks to have Burst SMS 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 Burst SMS as they are received.

Burst SMS Webhooks Setup

To receive incoming SMS messages to your Burst SMS 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 you can enter this into your Burst SMS account settings as follows:

1. login to your Burst SMS account via their website
2. from the top navigation menu click Numbers
3. click Reply Options for the number you wish to enter the Webhook URL for
4. select Yes for the Forward to URL option and enter the URL in the field
