Configuration

To configure VoIP Innovations we must follow a few simple steps, but first we must check that we have everything we need to create our provider and its campaign.

Required

• Have an account with VoIP Innovations and access to it

• Have a contact number enabled

• Login to uContact with permissions to create SMS Providers and SMS Campaigns

Open

1. Set up account

Set up the webhook for VoIP Innovations to receive the messages in uContact.

All you need is the following route:

https://<instance>.ucontactcloud.com/Integra/resources/InboundSMS/VoipInnovations

2. Get access parameters

Inside your account will see two parameters

• api_key

• api_secret

3. Create provider in uContact

Now we enter uContact with a user who has permissions to create SMS Providers and SMS Campaigns

Once inside, we go to Administrator -> Providers -> SMS

Here we see a drop-down menu called SMS Providers, by clicking on it the list of compatible providers is displayed, we select VoIP Innovations

Once selected we complete the fields

• Name (to identify the Provider)

• Username (api_key previously obtained in step 2)

• Password (api_secret previously obtained in step 2)

• SMS From (the phone number it will be used)

• Messages per second: Limit of messages that will be sent by this provider per second.

4. Create SMS campaign

Once the provider is already created in uContact and entered the webhook in the VoIP Innovations account, we can create our sms campaign.

We go to Administrator -> Campaigns -> SMS

The configurations required to create the campaign are the following:

• Name (to identify the campaign)

• Service Level (number, Learn more about…)

• SMS Providers (here select the provider created in the step 3)

• Strategy (Learn more about…)

• Schedules (Learn how to schedule…)

• DIDs - Ports (Phone number which receives the messages)
