Send and Receive SMS Through Tropo
02 Jun 2014I wanted a Tropo script that could send out text messages via the REST API as well as forward text messages that were received through the Tropo phone number. This snippet shows how I identified and handled the two cases.
if $action == "create"
# Script called from REST API
call "+1XXX5551212", {:network => "SMS"}
say "Sample Message Text"
else
# Script called from incoming SMS
callerId = $currentCall.callerID
text = $currentCall.initialText
message "#{callerId} => #{text}", {:to => "+1YYY5551212", :network => "SMS"}
end
