Configuring CallFire

Top  Previous  Next

CallFire's service provides a REST API to pass HTTP POST requests to send text messages. To do so, you'll need to create an CallFire account and generate API credentials. Once you have those, you can proceed with the setup in PageGate!

 

1) Run PageGate Admin.

 

2) Right click Carriers, select 'Add'.

 

3) Set the following:

Name: CallFire

Protocol: HTTPPOST

Host:  api.callfire.com/v2/texts

Port: 443

MaxChars: 16000

 

4) Click Apply

 

5) Go to Carriers - CallFire - Advanced

 

5) According to the CallFire documentation (https://developers.callfire.com/docs.html#authentication), you'll need to generate a username and password on their API access page. That username and password then go in the Username and Password fields in the Advanced sub-section of the carrier.

 

6) Click Apply.

 

7) Go to Carriers - CallFire - Template

 

8) Use the following in the 'Text' portion of the template:

|Content-Type|application/json|

 

[

{

"phoneNumber":"1%RecipientId%",

"message":"%Message%"

}

]

 

9) Click Apply.
