Submitting multiple SMS over HTTP Post

(This document requires Ozeki NG version 3.12.17 or newer)

To get better performance it is a good practice to send several messages with a single HTTP request. You can do this by adding the messagecount parameter to your request and by attaching a sequence number to the end of each HTTP api parameter that relates to the submitted messages.

Example URL Request for HTTP GET

http://127.0.0.1:9501/api?action=sendmessage&messagecount=2&username=admin&password=abc123& recipient0=06203105366&messagetype0=SMS:TEXT&messagedata0=Hello+World& recipient1=06202222222&messagetype1=SMS:TEXT&messagedata1=Second+Message

Example Request for HTTP POST

If you have a large number of messages, you should use HTTP Post to submit your request. You can do this by using the following HTML form:

<form action=http://127.0.0.1:9501/api method=post><br>
action: <input type=text name=action value=sendmessage><br>
messagecount: <input type=text name=messagecount value=2><br>
username: <input type=text name=username value=admin><br>
password: <input type=text name=password value=abc123><br>
recipient0: <input type=text name=recipient0 value=06203105366><br>
messagetype0: <input type=text name=messagetype0 value=SMS:TEXT><br>
messagedata0: <input type=text name=messagedata0 value='Hello World'><br>
recipient1: <input type=text name=recipient1 value=06202222222><br>
messagetype1: <input type=text name=messagetype1 value=SMS:TEXT><br>
messagedata1: <input type=text name=messagedata1 value='Second Message'><br>
<input type=submit value=OK>
</form>

This will produce the following HTTP POST request:

POST /api HTTP/1.1
Host: 127.0.0.1:9501
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10)

messagetype0=SMS%3ATEXT&messagedata0=Hello+World&recipient1=06202222222&messagetype1=SMS%3ATEXT&

The response for this request will be:
