When playSMS access Twilio, Twilio will respond with meaningful information, such as whether or not theres error. The easiest way to debug is by watching playsms.log, from console or from menu Reports -> View log.

Always add plus sign set to yes, but then since Twilio requires plus sign for country code then I set to yes so that playSMS will add it automatically when sending to SMSC.Always remove plus sign set to yes, I expect my users dont send SMS with plus sign.Default prefix or country code set to 62, it means when user send to 089012345 it will be modified by playSMS to 6289012345 (playSMS replace 0 with country code).Default SMSC is blocked, to make sure only routed destination allowed.

Default sender ID is empty, I chose to set it on Module sender ID (see 2.1).But, my users won’t have to, they will just send to 08xxxxxxxx instead of typing +628xxxxxxxx.

This is additional configuration I set to make sure that all destination number will be full phone number with plus sign. You can then set same prefix but for different user, using different SMSC. 62 is Indonesia country code, and 628 is mobile phones only. In my example above I routed all SMS to +628xxxxxxx to twilio1. Next, route outgoing SMS through twilio1. Other fields are empty because I don’t need to override the Gateway Twilio settings. If you set some information on those fields you will then override the setting on Gateway Twilio (see 2.1). Just set the SMSC name, and empty other fields. For example, same Gateway Twilio but different SMSC will use different Account SID and Auth Token, and can be different phone numbers. One gateway can have multiple SMSC for logging purposes, and for service differentiation. Go back to Settings -> Manage gateway and SMSC, this time click the plus icon next to folder icon to add an SMSC. You cannot use any number or label as your SMS sender ID. You can also empty it if you want to set caller ID by other way for example perhaps you want to set it in Settings -> Main configuration instead as your Default sender ID, or maybe you want to give some flexibility to your users so that you allow your users to set sender ID too from their playSMS dashboard.īut again, those numbers (alphanumerics and shortcodes too), must be already added to your Twilio SMS service. Twilio can add alphanumeric sender ID and shortcodes to your Twilio SMS service too, you can set this to one of those sender ID too. Remember to set Module sender ID in full phone number with plus sign, and this number must be your phone number set in Twilio. Callback URL should be automatically filled in, if not then set it to your Callback URL (see 1.3). Module sender ID is your +E164 phone number on your Twilio’s account (see 1.2). Next, enter Account SID, Auth Token and Module sender ID. Choose Gateway Twilio and click the Manage button (folder icon) to enter Twilio’s access information. Go to Settings -> Manage gateway and SMSC. Those will be used by playSMS to access the SMS service in Twilio. Last, you need to take notes on Account SID and Auth Token. Example, suppose your playSMS URL is then your callback URL (or REQUEST URL in Twilio) is: Once the SMS service ready, add a phone number to it. In my example I gave the service name playSMS Test. Login to Twilio and enter Twilio’s dashboard. Let’s start the configuration! Part 1 – Twilio

You need to upgrade your trial account and add more fund to use it in production. You may get trial fund for testing purposes. Requirementsīefore we start there are several things need to be ready: In this article I will explain how to configure a Gateway Plugin Twilio to connect playSMS with SMS service in Twilio. Gateway Plugin in playSMS is referred to plugin that handles actions such as sending and receiving SMS for playSMS from/to actual SMS gateway. PlaySMS uses plugins for various functions and one of them is for handling those SMS gateways. It needs another application or service, SMS gateway or gateway for short, to actually send and receive SMS. playSMS is not an actual SMS gateway, it cannot send or receive SMS by itself. PlaySMS is a web application for managing users, credits, features, routes and gateways, for sending and receiving SMS.
