API / TRANSACTIONAL SMS

This is a simple HTTP API that you can integrate into your website to send sms notifications in 4 steps;

Once you sign-up you get an automatic API Key:

MY-API-KEY-1234

See PHP HTTP API steps below;

1. Copy and paste this PHP function:

function sendSMS ($sender, $message , $destination, $dnd, $apikey){ 

$sender = urlencode($sender); 
$message = urlencode($message);
$destination = str_replace(' ', '', $destination); 
$destination = urlencode($destination); 
$live_mebo_url = "http://mebosms.com/api?apikey=".$apikey."&sender=".$sender."&dnd=".$dnd."&mssg=".$message."&destination=".$destination;
$parse_mebo_url= file($live_mebo_url); 

$numm = count($parse_mebo_url);
$numm = $numm-1 ;
$reports = $parse_mebo_url[$numm];
return $reports ; 
		
}
			

2. Call the function as show in the example below;

$sender = "SENDER"; //Sender name (with spaces) should not be more than 11 characters (Avoid use of special characters)
$message = "THIS IS MY MESSAGE"; 
$destination = "THIS IS MY PHONE NUMBER";
$dnd = "INPUT EITHER 0 OR 1"; //1: Deliver to DND numbers, 0: Don't deliver to DND Numbers
$apikey = "COPY AND PASTE API KEY HERE";
	
$sendd = sendSMS($sender, $message, $destination, $dnd, $apikey);
			

3. Pull reports from the function with json as shown below;

/* $send will return four array keys */
/*NOTE: if $send is blank, then you do not have SMS credits left */

$send = json_decode($sendd, true);

/*1.*/ $send['delivered'];     // Number of messages delivered
/*2.*/ $send['notDelivered'];  // Number of messages NOT delivered
/*3.*/ $send['badNumber'];    // Number of bad phone numbers
/*4.*/ $send['total'];         // Total number of messages sent
/*5.*/ $send['sentID'];	  // The unique ID number to track each message
			

4. Pull status of message sent with http api as shown below;

See Java API steps below;

1. Copy and compile this Java function:


public static String sendSMS(String sender, String message, String destination, String dnd, String apikey) {

	String webPage;
	try {
		webPage = "http://mebosms.com/api?apikey=" + apikey
				+ "&destination=" + URLEncoder.encode(destination, "UTF-8") + "&mssg=" + URLEncoder.encode(message, "UTF-8")
				+ "&sender=" + URLEncoder.encode(sender, "UTF-8") + "&dnd=" + dnd;
	} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
		return "UnsupportedEncodingException";
	}

	try {
		URL url = new URL(webPage);
		URLConnection urlConnection = url.openConnection();

		InputStream is = urlConnection.getInputStream();
		InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);

		int numCharsRead;
		char[] charArray = new char[1024];
		StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();

		while ((numCharsRead = isr.read(charArray)) > 0) {
			sb.append(charArray, 0, numCharsRead);
		}

	int indexOfJsonString= sb.indexOf("{");
		
		String result = indexOfJsonString==-1 ? sb.toString().trim(): sb.substring(sb.indexOf("{")).trim();
		return result;

	} catch (Exception e) {
		return "MalformedURLException";
	}
}


			

2. Call the function as show in the example below;

public static void main(String[] args) {
	// Example of use [Sending SMS]
	
String $sender = "SENDER"; //Sender name (with spaces) should not be more than 11 characters (Avoid use of special characters)
String message = "THIS IS MY MESSAGE"; 
String destination = "THIS IS MY PHONE NUMBER";
String dnd = "INPUT EITHER 0 OR 1"; //1: Deliver to DND numbers, 0: Don't deliver to DND Numbers
String apikey = "COPY AND PASTE API KEY HERE";

	String response = sendSMS( sender, message, destination, dnd, apikey);
	
System.out.println( response );
}

			

3. Pull reports from the function with json as shown below;

/* response will return a JSON output array keys */
/*NOTE: if response is blank, then you do not have SMS credits left */
//Use a JSON library to read the Json OUTPUT

JSONObject jSONObject = new JSONObject(response);

jSONObject.getInt("delivered"); // Number of messages delivered
jSONObject.getInt("notDelivered"); // Number of messages NOT delivered
jSONObject.getInt("badNumber"); // Number of bad phone numbers
jSONObject.getInt("noCredit");
jSONObject.getInt("dndNumber");
jSONObject.getInt("total"); // Total number of messages sent

jSONObject.getString("fullReport");
jSONObject.getString("messageID");
jSONObject.getString("sentID");  // The unique ID number to track each message
