I am using wire2air api for sending bulk sms and polling. but unable to get the delivery status for SMS.
I also have a look out their documentation here http://www.wire2air.com/developer_apis.asp
but unable to find any help from it.
also for replypath parameter in APi it is mentioned that "ONLY available in advance developer API."
So also not able to know what advance developer APi. is do i need to purchase different plan for it.
Any help on this is Appreciated.
Amit,
In order to get real-time delivery status from wire2air, you would need to implement their real-time delivery reports webservice. You should contact wire2air support, to activate the feature. If you're using a shared short code, Replypath is only used for receiving replies back to your server, this allow end users to reply to text message without using keyword.

Hey in my team's slack (messaging system for those who don't know) we have an automatic response, so that when anyone says "trump", slackbot automatically responds with "the wall just got ten feet higher". Now I want to make a counter that essentially allows slackbot to state "the wall just got ten feet higher, wall height:(have a updated value according to number of times "trump" has been stated)" So basically I want a way to have a value that updates the wall height but I am lost on how to do that within slackbot. Any help is much appreciated, thanks to all!
The default features provided by Slackbot only allows it to respond to keywords, but not much more. So to provide that additional feature you would need to develop a custom bot.
For your use case I would recommend building a so called internal integration for Slack using the Events API.
Internal integration allows you to add custom functions for your Slack team only (as opposed to a full fledged Slack app, that could also be installed and used for other Slack teams).
The Events API allows you to set up a bot that listens to messages and can react to keywords like "trump".
An alternative approach to the events API would be the outgoing webhook. However this function is now deprecated and should no longer be used. Also it only works with public channels.
To set this up you will need to develop a small webservice (e.g. in PHP) that listens on a webserver for requests from the events API, keeps count of how many times the keyword has been invoked in the past and sends an appropriate message back to your Slack team every time the keyword is used.
I can recommend reading the excellent official Slack API documentation if you want to learn more.
If you are familiar with PHP this can be done easily using the Slackbot Framework. It supports Events API allowing you to listen to messages in channels or direct messages (depending on the permission scopes of your APP). So all the conversations on Slack can be sent to your server and you can search for the specific keyword in every message. Then send back an appropriate message to Slack. In summary, the first step is to create an APP for your slack team at https://api.slack.com/apps?new_app=1. Next step is to install the Slackbot Framework which is explained here. Hope this is helpful.
That can also be done by integrating custom slack bot using Django. You'll have to subscribe events and based on events, Slack will send conversation message to the given url, and based on the event, you can write your logic to increase count and post message back to slack work space.
Hi everyone.
I have right now a simple multiplayer game but it is out of sync.
If I could receive my own message from the RealTimeMessageReceivedListener that would be awesome but I can't.
How I am sending my info:
for(Participant p : participants){
Games.RealTimeMultiplayer.sendUnreliableMessage(_gameHelper.getApiClient(),message.getBytes(),roomId,p.getParticipantId());
}
As you can see I'm sending my messages to everyone (even to myself). However at the RealTimeMessageReceivedListener I don't receive any information about my own message.
can you help me with this?
The API does not allow this according to:
the Real-time Multiplayer documentation. See section on Sending Messages. Also, the "sender participant" needs to be excluded if you intend to switch to sending broadcast messages with the API instead;
rationale provided in issue submitted to the Google Play Plugin for Unity project on GitHub.
I need to be able to access a log of all SMS that were sent. Is there a way to do this via their HTTP API? I haven't had much luck finding anything that reference this in their docs.
There is a feature called 'callbacks' that can send an HTTP request to your server for every message you send. It will give you status updates about the message and the message charge. This allows you to build up whatever form of custom reporting that you may want.
https://www.clickatell.com/developers/api-docs/callback-(push-status-and-cost-notification)-advanced-message-send/
You send your message with the callback parameter... And you specify your URL to receive callbacks on your API connection on the website.
Unfortunately, you can't access reporting features like that via API. You need to log in to your central dashboard to get that information.
You can, however, query the message status if you have the message ID, but I don't think that's quite what you're looking for.
(Disclosure: I work for Clickatell)
I am making an event organisation platform. Whenever user creates an event, the candidate gets an email notification as well as sms notification asking whether the suggested time fits or not. The problem is that since it is event organisation, there may be more than one occurance of candidate's mobile phone. So I need to have some unique information to identify to which event candidate is responding to.
I have tried identify using Message SID, but then I realised that Message SID is different on reply message.
So my question would be: is there any way to authenticate to which message candidate is replying to?
Hi Twilio developer evangelist here.
Because every message is idempotent, you wouldn't be able to track them just via the call sid. however, there's way to get around that such as passing a code that goes with each message which you can then read, or using cookies.
I think you are probably going to be more successful using cookies, and luckily enough there is an article on twilio's website that describes just how to do that. And because I noticed you're using PHP, I'm pointing you directly to the PHP article on tracking SMS conversations.
Hope this helps you
I am trying to figure out how to use sinch to build a basic group messaging app. It looks pretty simple but I have a few questions to help me understand the platform:
1) It seems like the platform doesn't support multiple conversations for one user. For example facebook messenger allows you to have many conversations with different people (different chats). But sinch only lets you send a message to a user with no conversation meta data. Or is it possible to send your message with meta data?
2)Do you manage users on the sinch platform? This means creating user objects and giving them id's etc or must this be done on another platform like parse?
3)How do you handle messaging logs? Like if I send a message to someone that's not logged in- how do I save it and also send them a push notification that a message was sent?
Thanks for the help everyone- the documentation is a bit dilute so I haven't been able to find answers to these questions yet :/.
You can send meta data with headers, to create your own meta data thing. But to be fair Sinch is more like multi recipient message than groups with channels.
No, we use delegated security
We will automatically deliver the message when the user logs on, we keep messages for 30 days for delivery.
