Push SMS is a way of sending an email or a HTTP POST/GET notification to a server when an SMS is sent or received by a connection in the deviceWISE Cloud. Push SMS uses the sms.activity trigger event in conjunction with the http.client and/or email.send trigger action. The trigger is constantly looking for an SMS event to happen and triggers the corresponding actions to either send the data to the HTTP client or to an email. The SMS including all its fields are sent to the clients server or email.
You need not constantly poll (check API logs) to see if an SMS is received from a device instead the trigger listening for the SMS activity automatically pushes the received content to your server or to the email address instantly. The following diagram describes the working of the Push SMS.
The use case diagrams below demonstrates the MO (Mobile Originated) and MT (Mobile Terminated) options. The Sending Push SMS to Email or HTTP endpoint describes the procedure to setup the trigger.
