FTP API [Bulk SMS]

The FTP API is a simple and powerful API to send large batches with SMS or MMS. This API can be used to send all kind of message types, including ordinary text, binary, MMS (provided MMS is already stored on ViaNett's server) and Unicode messages.

Benefits

• Excellent interface for sending large batches of SMS and MMS.
• High throughput, millions of SMS transferred in one batch (messages will be queued on the server for delivery).
• Support for individual content for each recipient.
• Can be combined with other APIs to retrieve delivery reports.

Requirements

• Programming/scripting skills.
• FTP software.

Example

Create a text file with multiple recipients and messages. Save the file and upload it to the FTP server. Please look at the documentation for the exact syntax.
