Service for sending SMS using GatewayAPI

A new service package is available, that help services send SMS messages to its users. The service uses the GatewayAPI SMS service. The service also publishes a configuration page, accessible from the administration page, and a simple script function making it easy to integrate with services hosted on the Neuron® where the service is installed. The service is also available open source on GitHub.

Installable Package

The service has been made into a package that can be downloaded and installed on any TAG Neuron. If your Neuron® is connected to this network, you can install the package using the following information:
