    Has anyone had any experience using the Clickatel REST API for SMS Messaging?

    I have recently implemented a 2-factor verification solution with SMS messages. It uses Chilkat with their REST API for Twilio and it was really straightforward and quick to make.

    we have used a number of these services, Twilio, Nexmo, Clickatel, etc

    sending an SMS is a really simple HTTP POST. No additional products needed

    Add Auth header and then post json or xml data. ypur choice

    for ex

    Code:
    POST /messages
    Content-Type: application/json
    Accept: application/json
    Authorization: [Your Authorization Token]
    {
      "content": "your message",
      "to": ["+1112223333", "1112223334"],
      "from": "1234567890",
      "binary": false,
      "clientMessageId": "uuid",
      "scheduledDeliveryTime": "2020-02-15T12:30:00+0200",
      "userDataHeader": "0605040B8423F0",
      "validityPeriod": 1,
      "charset": "UTF-8"
    }

    Thanks all, I should have been more specific. I was having an issue with my implementation of clickable but I got it sorted

    Chris, what was the issue you had? I seem to be able to get to the server but must have a missing element to my JSON. Or worse.
