WHMCS SMS notifications - integration manual

Here we describe how to set up WHMCS with SMSEagle gateway for SMS messaging.

SMSEagle is an offline hardware SMS gateway. Therefore no external connection to 3rd party system is required. All notifications are generated on-premise and sent directly to a cellular network. This solution can be used in secure installations without Internet access.

SMSEagle Setup

  1. Create a new user in SMSEagle (menu Users > + Add Users) with access level “User”.
  2. Grant API access to the created user:
    • click Access to API beside the newly created user
    • Enable APIv1
    • check “Enable user/password authentication (APIv1 only)”
    • Add access permissions in section APIv1 Permission for: send_sms, send_tocontact, send_togroup
    • Save settings
  3. Open the menu Settings > SSL page. Set Forward HTTP to HTTPS to “No”.
