About Textlocal SMS API Gateway

Textlocal SMS API Gateway allows you to easily integrate our messaging services with your website or any other in-house/external application in PHP, ASP, .NET, Java or any other language. You can view our comprehensive API documentation and sample codes here: https://api.textlocal.in/docs/

For a quick test to send SMS via Textlocal APIs, use the API request given here

These are a few parameters which are not needed in Textlocal API requests:

  • Templateid: This is picked directly from approved templates in Textlocal
  • User: Textlocal uses a more secure form of authentication (apiKey)
  • Dcs & isHex: You can send unicode messages using the unicode parameter in Textlocal

Please note:

  • All templates must be approved in Textlocal before sending via messenger/API
  • You can use the same API to send English and Unicode messages. (Check unicode parameter below)
  • Refer our comprehensive API documentation to know about our advanced parameters like schedule, test, custom, receipt URLs etc.
