To get the SMS cost, you need to call the GET or POST address method: https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&phones=<phones>&mes=<message>&cost=1
To send an SMS with the transmission of parameters in json format in the request body, you must use the POST method to call the address: https://smscentre.com/rest/send/
Description of the parameters passed to the Server :

OptionThe value
loginCustomer Login.
pswClient Password (you can add or change it on this page).
phonesThe number or comma-separated or semicolon-separated list of mobile phone numbers in international format to which the message is sent. Numbers can be passed without the "+ " sign. If the number is passed without the " + " sign, it can be corrected by automatic formatting and converted to the correct international format. Thus, some errors when entering phone numbers can be corrected automatically. To disable auto-correction, pass the number with the "+ " sign.".
You can also send a message to a group of numbersby specifying a special code " G<íîìåð ãðóïïû>". The message will be sent to all numbers belonging to this group. For an e-mail message, a list of recipients' e-mail addresses is transmitted .
mesThe text of the message being sent. The maximum size is 1000 characters. If necessary, the message will be divided into several SMS messages sent to the subscriber and paid separately. Size of one SMS – 160 characters in Latin or 70 characters in Cyrillic. When splitting a message into multiple SMS messages, a header is added to each part to combine the parts into a single message on the recipient's phone, and the maximum length becomes 67 for Cyrillic and 153 for Latin letters. You can add comments to the message text that are intended for the sender to view the history in the personal account.
Additional options
idThe message ID. Assigned by the Client. Serves for further identification of the message. If not specified, it will be assigned automatically. Not necessarily unique.

    }

  • when op = 1 and fmt = 0 or 1, the information is added to the end of the normal output from a new line:
    <phone>,<mccmnc>,<cost>,<status>,<error>

  • when op = 1 and fmt = 2, an array is added to the response:
    <phones>
    <phone mccmnc="mccmnc" cost="cost" status="status" error="error">phone</phone>

Where:
<n><n> is the number of SMS sent, calculated as the number of SMS messages in the message multiplied by the number of recipients.
<id> – the message ID sent by the Client or assigned automatically by the Server.
<cnt> – the number of parts (when sending an SMS message) or the number of seconds (when sending a voice message (call)).
<balance> – new Customer Balance.
<phone> – phone number.
<mccmnc> – the numeric code of the subscriber's country plus the numeric code of the subscriber's operator.
<cost> – the cost of an SMS message.
<status> – sMS Message status code.
<error> – error code in the status.

The server does not accept more than one identical request to send SMS messages within a minute to protect against errors and loops in the Client-side program in order to reduce the load and not waste the Client's funds, as well as to prevent multiple messages from being sent to one subscriber.

The server also blocks sending more than 50 messages to one subscriber, which were sent with a break between messages of less than 60 seconds, to protect against flooding and unnecessary debiting of funds from the Client's account, since many operators do not pass a large number of messages to one subscriber in a short period of time.

Examples of sending messages

Examples:

Normal message:

https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123&phones=79999999999&mes=Hello! https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123

https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123&phones=G777%2Cg888&mes=Hello!

Sending an HLR request

You can check phone numbers for availability by sending a special HLR request. As a result of executing the request, data will be received about the subscriber's country and operator, about the roaming operator when the subscriber is on someone else's network, as well as about the subscriber's status (available or not). Subscribers, owners of the numbers being checked, will not receive any notifications about the checks performed on their number.

Execution of an HLR request over the HTTP protocol is performed in the same way as sending an SMS message, and the request must pass an additional parameter hlr=1.

To send an HLR request, use the GET or POST method to call the address: https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&phones=<phones>&hlr=1
Other parameters that are used for sending regular SMS messages and described on this page are also available.

The result of the HLR request can be sent to the URL for receiving incoming messages and statuses specified in the settings in your personal account, or it can be read by requesting the status of the sent SMS message.

Example:
https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123&phones=79999999999&hlr=1

Sending an MMS message

To send an MMS message, you must use the GET or POST method to call the address: https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&phones=<phones>&mes=<message>&mms=1
If you plan to send any files (text, music, audio, video), then you need to send them using the POST method in the body http (s)-request to the server. It is also possible to send an external file in the request via the fileurlparameter, which contains the full http (s) address of the file, or to add an https link to the message text of a previously downloaded file, which you can find out in your personal account on the sending page by clicking "attach file" - " Downloaded files".

The maximum number of attachments passed in a request is twenty, and the total size of all attachments must not exceed 300 KB. If the specified limits are exceeded, the remaining attachments will be transmitted as links. For an MMS message, specify the subject or text it is mandatory.

Examples:

Sending an MMS message with the subject "Privet" and the text "Hello":

https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123&phones=79999999999&mes=Hello&subj=Privet&mms=1
Sending MMS with the subject "Holiday" and two photos via library based on cURL:

<?php
include "smsc_api.php";
send_sms("79999999999", "", 0, 0, 0, 7, false, "subj=Holiday", array("/home/alex/1.jpg", "/home/alex/2.jpg"));
?>

Sending an e-mail message

To send an e-mail, you need to call the GET or POST address method: https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&phones=<phones>&mes=<message>&sender=<sender>&subj=<subj>&mail=1
If you plan to transfer any files when sending them, then they must be transmitted by the POST method in the body of an http(s) request to the server. The positions in the text in which you plan to insert files must be designated in a special way in the form of "<file n><file n>", where n is the file number in the generated list starting from one. If you do not specify the positions, then the corresponding files will be added to the end of the message.

To download a file from an external source, you can pass an additional fileurl parameter in the request containing the full http(s) address of the file.

The maximum number of attachments transmitted in a request is 20, and the size of each attachment should not exceed 10 MB. If the specified limits are exceeded, an error with the code 1 (incorrect parameters) will be returned. When sending each email, the maximum total size of attached attachments is 15 MB, attachments that do not fit into this size will be transmitted by a link to our website.

By default, a special unsubscribe link is added to the end of the message text. To disable this link, you need to add a special macro {no_unsub} to any place in the text of the letter.

For e-mail messages, specifying the subject, text and sender's address is mandatory.

Examples of sending e-mail messages

Examples:

Sending an e-mail to the address "alex@mysite.com" with the subject "Privet" and the text "Hello" from the sender "alex2@mysite2.com":

https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=alex&psw=123&phones=alex%40mysite.com&mes=Hello&subj=Privet&sender=alex2%40mysite2.com&mail=1
Sending an e-mail with the subject "Holiday" and two photos via the cURL-based library:

<?php
include "smsc_api.php";
send_sms("alex@mysite.com", "Hello", 0, 0, 0, 8, "alex2@mysite2.com", "subj=Holiday", array("/home/alex/1.jpg", "/home/alex/2.jpg"));
?>

Sending an e-mail with the subject "Hello" and a photo uploaded earlier to the server:

<?php
include "smsc_api.php";
send_sms("alex@mysite.com", "Hello, this is my photo &lt;file /upload/files/sms/123abc/photo.jpg width=200 height=400>", 0, 0, 0, 8, "alex2@mysite2.com", "subj=Hello");
?>

Sending a voice message (call)

To send a voice message, you need to call the address using the GET or POST method: https://smscentre.com/sys/send.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&phones=<phones>&mes=<message>&call=1
When forming a message, you can specify both text and add wav and mp3 media files.

If you plan to transfer files, then they must be transmitted by the POST method in the body of an http(s) request to the server. The positions in the text in which you plan to insert files must be designated in a special way in the form of "<file n><file n>", where n is the file number in the generated list starting from one. If you do not specify the positions, then the corresponding files will be added to the end of the message.

Ïðè ñîçäàíèè ñîîáùåíèÿ ìîæíî âñòàâëÿòü â òåêñò http(s)-ññûëêè ðàíåå çàãðóæåííûõ ôàéëîâ, óçíàòü êîòîðûå ìîæíî â ëè÷íîì êàáèíåòå íà ñòðàíèöå îòïðàâêè, íàæàâ ïîñëåäîâàòåëüíî ññûëêè "ïðèêðåïèòü ôàéë" – "Çàãðóæåííûå ôàéëû".

To download a file from an external source, you can pass an additional fileurl parameter in the request containing the full http(s) address of the file. In this case, passing the mes parameter in the request is optional.

Since telephone lines cannot perfectly play complex media files, when forming a sent message, the transmitted files are converted to a simple format.

When sending a voice message, the initial time and cost are calculated approximately. After sending and listening to messages the subscriber, the duration and the call cost or adjusted downwards (for example, if the subscriber has not heard the message through), or if the duration of the message exceeds the calculated, the difference in seconds is indicated in comments to the message in the form of extra time, overtime, including those which displayed in detail in a separate entry. Also, overtime may occur when using the voice menu (IVR).

The maximum number of attachments transmitted in a request is four, and the size of each attachment should not exceed 5 MB. If the specified limits are exceeded, processed attachments will be excluded.

To send your phone number as the sender's name, you must specify it in the sender parameter. The specified number must first be added and activated in the personal account on this page.

When forming a request, you can pass a special parameter param, which specifies some characteristics of the call (more details can be found in the description). Additionally, you can also pass the voice parameter in the request, which determines the voice used for voicing the text. This parameter can take the following values:
  • voice = m – male voice.
  • voice = m2 – male voice 2.
  • voice = m3 – male voice 3 (by default).
  • voice = m4 – male voice 4.
  • voice = w – a woman's voice.
  • voice = w2 – female voice 2.
  • voice = w3 – female voice 3.
  • voice = w4 – female voice 4.
When sending messages, it is also possible to specify the language of the text in the form: "m,en", "w,fr", "w,de", etc..

Using the voice menu (IVR)

To use the voice menu, you must send a text or voice file with the initial instructions for the subscriber at the beginning of the message text and then specify a macro containing the service menu commands {menu: <...>}, where <...> description of the voice menu options.

Schematically, the message using the voice menu looks like this:
ÑÒÀÐÒÎÂÛÉ ÒÅÊÑÒ

{menu: [ÒÅÊÑÒ ÌÅÍÞ]
1: ÒÅÊÑÒ èëè ÊÎÌÀÍÄÀ
2
: ÒÅÊÑÒ2 èëè ÊÎÌÀÍÄÀ2
...
}

ÊÎÍÅ×ÍÛÉ ÒÅÊÑÒ

After picking up the phone, the subscriber is given the "START TEXT", then the "MENU TEXT" is played with a description of the menu items and acceptable actions. After pressing the key on the numeric keypad of the phone corresponding to the desired item, the subscriber can be voiced the text "TEXT" or perform one or more consecutive "COMMANDS". After exiting the menu, the "END TEXT" is voiced".

If an error occurs, the Server returns the following string:
  • when fmt = 0:
    ERROR = N (description)

  • when fmt = 1:
    0,-N

  • when fmt = 2:
    <result>
    <error>description</error>
    <error_code>N</error_code>
    </result>

  • when fmt = 3:
    {
    "error": "description",
    "error_code": N
    }
N – error number, can take the following values:

The valueDescription
1Error in parameters.
2Invalid username or password. Also occurs when trying to send a message from an IP address that is not included in the list of allowed by the Client (if such a list was previously configured by the Client).
4The IP address is temporarily blocked.
9Attempt to send more than ten identical template action requests.
This error also occurs when you try to send fifteen or more requests simultaneously from different connections under the same username (too many concurrent requests).

If the request is successful, the Server returns a response in the form of a string:

When creating a template:
  • when fmt = 0:
    name = <status>, id = <id>
    ...

  • when fmt = 1:
    <name>,<status>,<id>
    ...

  • when fmt = 2:
    <result>
    <template>
    <name>name</name>
    <status>status</status>
    <id>id</id>
    </template>
    ...
    </result>

  • when fmt = 3:
    [{
    "name": <status>,
    "id": <id>
    },
    ...]

When requesting a list of templates:
  • when fmt = 0:
    name = <status>, id = <id>
    ...

  • when fmt = 1:
    <name>,<status>,<id>
    ...

  • when fmt = 2:
    <result>
    <template>
    <name>name</name>
    <status>status</status>
    <id>id</id>
    </template>
    ...
    </result>

  • when fmt = 3:
    [{
    "name": <status>,
    "id": <id>
    },
    ...]

Where:
<name> – the name of the operator and the type of messages.
<id> – the template ID assigned by the system automatically.
<status> – the status of the template, can take the following values:

for the add command:
-2 – the specified template cannot be saved;
-1 – the sender name for this template was not found or was not accepted by the operator;
1 – template added successfully;

for the get command:
-1 – the template for the specified operator was not found;
0 – awaiting registration;
1 – sent for registration;
2 – accepted by the operator;
3 – not accepted by the operator;
4 – temporarily disabled.

The server does not accept more than ten identical requests for actions with templates within a minute to reduce the load and protect against errors and loops in the Client-side program.

Virtual sending (test mode)

This mode of operation allows you to test sending messages without actually transmitting them to operators. It can be useful for initial setup and testing of various software and hardware. To enable this mode, you need to go to your personal account under "Settings" in the drop-down block "API Settings", check the box "Test mode (virtual sending without payment)".

During virtual sending, all messages will have the final status "Delivered", but during the sending process, the messages will go through all the stages of processing along the chain "Waiting to be sent" – "Sent to the operator" – "Delivered". You can get message statuses either on request or on your own http handler. You can send both single messages and mass mailings. You can test different types of messages (SMS, binary messages, HLR, MMS, call), except for e-mail..

Event Notifications

When certain events occur, you may need to send notification messages containing the information necessary to process these events. To solve such problems, you can use the extension of our monitoring system, which allows you to send various notifications through our service from external systems. To do this, in your personal account on the page "Creating a task group" you need to create an appropriate group, where you can specify notification templates, types of messages sent when an event occurs, and contacts for notifications (phone numbers, e-mail addresses, jabber accounts).

To send a notification, you need to call the GET or POST address method: https://smscentre.com/sys/ping.php?login=<login>&psw=<password>&id=<id>
The following parameters are passed to the server:

OptionThe value
loginCustomer Login.
pswClient Password (you can add or change it on this page).
idID of the task group (the "ID" column").
nameThe name of the rule or server in the task. Replaces the {NAME} macro in the notification text.
hostThe address or IP of the server being checked. Replaces the {HOST} macro.
infoAdditional information about the event. Replaces the {INFO} macro.
okWhen generating a notification, use the following template:
0 – (by default) a task group template is used, which is sent when a failure occurs.
1 – the task group template that is sent during recovery is used.

If an error occurs, the Server returns the following string:
  • ERROR = N (description)

  • When fmt = 1:
    0,-N

  • When fmt = 2:
    <result>
    <error>description</error>
    <error_code>N</error_code>
    </result>

  • When fmt = 3:
    {
    "error": "description",
    "error_code": N
    }
N – error number, can take the following values:

The valueDescription
1Error in parameters.
2Invalid username or password. Also occurs when trying to send a message from an IP address that is not included in the list of allowed by the Client (if such a list was previously configured by the Client).
3Task group not found.
4The IP address is temporarily blocked.
9Attempt to send more than five identical notification requests within a minute.
This error also occurs when you try to send fifteen or more requests simultaneously from different connections under the same username (too many concurrent requests).

If the request is successful, the Server returns a response in the form of a string.

  • when fmt = 0 and fmt = 1: OK

  • when fmt = 2:
    <result>OK</result>

  • when fmt = 3:
    {
    "result": "OK"
    }

The server does not accept more than five identical requests to send a notification within a minute to reduce the load and protect against errors and loops in the Client-side program.
