Configuring your VoIP.ms account with Textable is pretty simple and should only take a few minutes.
- First, you should login to your console at https://voip.ms/.
- Once logged in, go to the SOAP and REST / JSON API page at https://voip.ms/m/api.php
- Here, you will need to set your API Password and Enable API. You will also need to disable the IP Whitelist by entering in 0.0.0.0 and clicking “Save IP Addresses”
- We must now configure the inbound webhooks for incoming messages.
- Go to the Manage DID Numbers section in VoIPms (https://voip.ms/m/managedid.php)
- Select the pencil icon to edit the phone number that you would like to use with Textable.
- Under the Short Message Service section, check the “SMS URL Callback” box.
- Set the value of the input to https://app01.textable.co/receive?provider=voipms&to={TO}&from={FROM}&msg={MESSAGE}&media={MEDIA}
- You can optionally select the URL Retry option. This will do a continuous retry if the message failed to hit our servers properly. This may result in duplicate inbound messages from time to time.
- Click “Click here to apply changes”
- Download the Textable app from App Store (iOS)or Google Play Store (Android)
- Click the Sign Up button.
- Set Business Phone field to the number that you just updated in your VoIP.ms account and you want to use to send / receive messages with Textable.
- Select “VoIP.ms” for the SIP Provider field.
- Set Account ID field to the e-mail address that you login to VoIP.ms with.
- Set Access Token to the API Password that you set above.
- Click “Create Account” button.
That’s it, you should be able to send and receive messages!
