Automated SMS is the best way to contact your customers

Send two-way SMS messages

8x8's SMS API provides a programmatic way to create two way SMS conversations for uses such as a customer support channel and appointment confirmations. Watch the video to see the code in action.

Sign up here: https://connect.8x8.com/login/signup

8x8's SMS API provides a programmatic way to create two way SMS conversations for uses such as a customer support channel and appointment confirmations. Let’s see the code in action.

We’ll use two procedures: one script to send the SMS and another script that will listen for the response. First we start by building the script that will send the outbound SMS. For that we will have four dynamic fields including the 8x8 SubAccountID, API Key, phone number and text message body. We’ll provide those last two as input in the script for this example. I’ll close the file and run it later.

Next, let’s create a simple script that will listen for incoming messages and print out the text message body for each message received. I’ll use an available port in my system for new incoming messages, and because the incoming message will be in JSON format, I’ll make sure to parse the JSON and then print out the message received to display it to you.

So let’s give it a try, first we execute the script that will listen for incoming messages and then we execute the script that sends out the message to my mobile phone.

As you can see, I receive the message right away. I’m going to reply back, and we can see the reply arriving to my server and the body of the message received being printed on the console.

It's that easy to send and receive messages using 8x8's SMS API. 

Check out the documentation to learn more.
