This SMS vendor has been deprecated.

Following are the steps required to setup the MessageBird SMS vendor connection in your Onage account:

  1. Fill in the API Key from the MessageBird UI in the MessageBird connector in Ongage.

  3. Create the following URL in the flow builder in order to allow us to process replies like ‘stop’, ‘unsubscribe’ etc.

The List ID parameter is optional – you should add it to the URL only if you wish to use “help” reply. You will need to change the List ID in the URL to the relevant list in Ongage and in the future, if you’ll want to use a different connection, you should create another URL and insert the new connection ID instead of the current ‘<connection_id>

Below is example URL:
<http://trkpnt.ongage.net/messagebird.hook.php?account_id=<account_id>>&connection_id=<connection_id>&list_id=<list_id>
