The SMS component provides an easy way to manage short message service (SMS) messages from a variety of service providers.

Syntax

TctSMS

Remarks

This component provides a single interface that can be used to work with a variety of services. By supporting multiple providers with a single API code may be written once and used to support multiple services. The following providers are currently supported by this component:

• Twilio
• Sinch
• SMSGlobal
• SMS.to
• Vonage
• Clickatell

The component supports sending, scheduling, deleting, updating, listing, fetching, and more. Note that not all services support all operations. See the Service Provider Specific Notes page for more information.

Selecting a Provider

To specify a service provider simply set the ServiceProvider property. To begin, first create an account and register with the desired service provider(s).

Authentication

Once the account is created, the service provider will provide some form of credentials. Assign the provider account credentials to the corresponding AccountKey and AccountSecret properties. As a note, in some cases, the service provider does not provide or require an account secret.

Sending a Message

The Send method is used to send SMS messages without any delay.

The message details are specified by the MessageFrom, MessageRecipients, and MessageBody properties.

sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; string messageId = sms.Send();

Scheduling a Message

Some service providers allow for messages to be scheduled to send at a particular time. The ScheduleMessage method can be used to delay SMS messages from being sent until the specified time.

The message details are specified by the MessageFrom, MessageRecipients, and MessageBody properties. The scheduled time to send is specified by the MessageDate property.

sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; sms.MessageDate = "2023-04-10T20:02:39Z"; string messageId = sms.ScheduleMessage();

Deleting a Message

Some service providers also support "deleting" messages from the account. The DeleteSentMessage and DeleteReceivedMessage methods delete an SMS message that was sent or received, respectively. The particular manner in which the message is deleted depends on the service provider. See the service provider documentation for more details.

In order to delete a message, the corresponding message ID must be provided to the method.

sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; string id = sms.Send(); // Wait for the message to send before deleting. sms.DeleteSentMessage(id);

Updating a Message

Certain service providers support updating sent messages. The specifics of what values can be updated and when the message is still available to be updated depends on the service provider. The UpdateSentMessage method will update a sent SMS message with the values found in its corresponding Messages properties entry.

sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; string id = sms.Send(); // Wait for the message to send before updating with cleared body text. sms.Messages[0].Body = ""; sms.UpdateSentMessage(id);

Listing Messages

If supported by the service provider, the ListSentMessages and ListReceivedMessages methods list sent and received SMS messages, respectively, present on the authenticated account.

In order to refine which messages are listed, service-specific filters may be supplied. See the service documentation for more information about the parameters that can be added as the filter.

string startTime = DateTime.UtcNow.ToString("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ"); sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; sms.Send(); // Wait for the message to send before listing only the above message by supplying multiple filters. sms.ListSentMessages("To=" + sms.MessageRecipients + "&DateSent>=" + startTime); foreach (SMSMessage message in sms.Messages) { if (message.From.Equals("+11234567890")) { // . . . } }

Fetching a Message

In certain cases, it is useful to fetch a specific message. If supported, the RetrieveSentMessage and RetrieveReceivedMessage methods can be used to fetch a specific SMS message that was sent or received, respectively, in the authenticated account.

In order to fetch a message, the corresponding message ID must be supplied.

sms.MessageFrom = "+11234567890"; sms.MessageRecipients = "+10987654321"; sms.MessageBody = "This is an SMS message."; string id = sms.Send(); // Wait for the message to send before fetching. sms.FetchSentMessage(id); if (sms.Messages[0].MessageStatus.Equals("Delivered")) { // . . . }

Config Method (SMS Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

HandleWebhook Method (SMS Component)

Parses requests made to a web-hook.

Syntax

String __fastcall HandleWebhook(String HeaderString, String QueryString, DynamicArray<Byte> PostData);

Remarks

This method takes the HeaderString, QueryString, and PostData to parse the callback request that was made to a web server. Service providers typically support two types of callback endpoints.

The first callback endpoint, delivery reports, give status updates on sent messages. When the method handles these requests, the component will fire the DeliveryReport event.

The second callback endpoint, incoming messages, will fire a request to the web-hook when a new incoming message arrives. When the method handles these requests, the component will fire the IncomingMessage event.

It is important to note that the component will not handle creating the web server to host the web-hook that is specified. The method is intended to be used as a helper method for interpreting the request made to the web-hook.
