Key Term Definitions:

TermDescription
ACTIONThis is the name of the function you want to execute with the API.
API_KEYRandom key that is assigned to an account that can be used for authorization instead of USER/PASS. You can find and regenerate this key on the ‘API Settings’ page.
CAMPAIGNREFDepending on your API settings, you may be required to subscribe users into a campaign first before sending them messages. If you are required to subscribe a user first, then a valid Campaign Reference is required. This would be the campaign reference ID (string) to which the user is subscribed.
FROMA valid shortcode or longcode for the sender address(string). When sending to a list of many numbers using the ‘sendSavedContent’ function and if the ‘FROM’ value cannot be used for a certain country, then the system will re-write the sender address to use a valid shortcode for those numbers.
MMSIDThe ID(integer) of a saved MMS.
SUBSCRIBERREFThe customer reference ID for the subscriber. This ID can reference one or more subscriber phone numbers.
TEXTThe SMS message limit is 160 characters(string).
TOThis is the message recipient’s phone number in an international format.
TRACKINGIDOn success, the API returns with the tracking ID to identify sent messages. Upon API call failure, no tracking ID is returned. Once the message sending is processed you shall receive a postback containing TRACKINGID and the message status.
