SMS Messaging API
HTTP API to send and receive SMS messages to every country in the world.
Although we fully support this API we suggest using a more modern and feature-rich Omnichannel API.
Overview
- Make an HTTPS request to SMS Messaging API
- Check the response code and store
Message IDto match DLR later - SMS is sent to the handset
- Handset responds with Delivery Report (DLR).
- If configured Messente forwards the DLR to the callback URL.

// Make HTTP call to Messente API http_build_query([ 'username' => MESSENTE_API_USERNAME, 'password' => MESSENTE_API_PASSWORD, 'from' => 'MyDelivery', 'to' => '+44000000000', 'text' => 'Your parcel will be delivered at 10AM', 'dlr-url' => MESSENTE_SMS_DLR_URL ]); $ch = curl_init($url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); $response = curl_exec('https://api2.messente.com/send_sms/?');
