PageGate can be easily configured to send text messages through Soprano's SMS API. It can do so by using their HTTP POST API and here's what you'll need to do:
1) Run PageGate Admin.
2) Right click Carriers, select 'Add'.
3) Set the following:
Name: Soprano
Protocol: HTTPPOST
Host: na1.smartmessagingsuite.com/cgphttp/servlet/sendmsg
Port: 443
MaxChars: 16000
4) Click Apply
5) Go to Carriers - Soprano - Advanced
6) Set the Username and Password to your Soprano login credentials.
7) Click Apply.
8) Go to Carriers - Soprano - Template
9) Set the following in the 'Settings' section:
HttpPostType = ParamOnly
10) Set the following in the 'Text' section:
|Content-Type|application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8|
|destination|%RecipientId%|
|text|%Message%|
|source|ENTER YOUR SOPRANO PHONE NUMBER HERE|
10) Click Apply
Now that we've told PageGate how to communicate with Soprano, you'll need to add recipients to represent who you want to message. Here's how:
1) In PG Admin, right click Recipients and select 'Add'.
2) Give the recipient a name.
3) Set the Carrier to: Soprano
4) Enter the phone number in international format (example: +17818290500) in the ID/PIN field.
5) Click Apply.
Happy messaging!
