SMS Gateway - SMS Express
The SMS Express SMS Gateway delivers SMS messages to Australian and New Zealand mobile numbers.
Incoming Messages/Replies
You can get incoming messages/replies to your SMS Express number into the fmSMS file in 3 ways:
- Use Webhooks to have SMS Express push these automatically to fmSMS
- Use Claris Connect Webhooks
- Use Otto Webhooks
Using Webhooks is the preferred method as it saves you from having to poll/check for any new messages - with Webhooks new messages are forwarded to fmSMS automatically by SMS Express as they are received.
SMS Express Webhooks Data API PHP Setup
To receive incoming SMS messages to your SMS Express number, including replies to previously sent messages, you will need to use the supplied incomingMessage.php webhook file to act as the webhook receiver. See our Webhooks guide for what you need to do host the incomingMessage.php file on your chosen web server. Once you have the publicly accessible URL for this file you can enter the URL to this file in your online SMS Express Account Settings under Webhooks. Once you have tested this successfully and completed the go live process you can then select the webhook for the REST API Key that you created to use with fmSMS. under API Keys > REST API Key Settings > Webhooks.
