LabVIEW SMS API Integration
This guide provides comprehensive LabVIEW code examples for integrating with the SecureSMSC SMS API using HTTP Client VI.
Fast Integration
Get started in minutes with simple REST API calls
Global Reach
Send SMS to 200+ countries worldwide
Secure
Enterprise-grade security with SSL/TLS encryption
Reliable
99.9% uptime with delivery tracking
Quick Start: All examples use the REST API v2 endpoint. Get your API key from the dashboard to begin.
Installation
Install the required HTTP library for making API requests:
Terminal
# Install HTTP Client VI for HTTP requests
# Check your package manager documentation for specific commands
Send Single SMS
Send a single SMS message using the API:
LabVIEW
# LabVIEW SMS API Integration
# Using HTTP Client VI for HTTP requests
# API Configuration
api_key = "YOUR_API_KEY"
api_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2/sms/send"
# Request Headers
headers = {
"Authorization": "Bearer " + api_key,
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
# SMS Data
data = {
"sender_id": "SENDER",
"recipient": "1234567890",
"message": "Hello from LabVIEW!",
"route": "transactional"
}
# Make POST request to send SMS
# Use HTTP Client VI to send the request
response = http_post(api_url, headers, data)
# Handle response
if response.status == 200:
print("SMS sent successfully!")
print("Message ID:", response.body.data.message_id)
else:
print("Error:", response.body.error)
Send Bulk SMS
Send SMS to multiple recipients in a single request:
LabVIEW
# Bulk SMS - Send to multiple recipients
api_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2/sms/send-bulk"
# Multiple recipients
data = {
"sender_id": "SENDER",
"recipients": ["1234567890", "0987654321", "1122334455"],
"message": "Bulk message from LabVIEW",
"route": "promotional"
}
response = http_post(api_url, headers, data)
print("Bulk SMS Status:", response.status)
Check SMS Status
Query the delivery status of a sent message:
LabVIEW
# Check SMS delivery status
message_id = "your_message_id"
status_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2/sms/status/" + message_id
response = http_get(status_url, headers)
if response.status == 200:
print("Delivery Status:", response.body.data.status)
print("Delivered At:", response.body.data.delivered_at)
else:
print("Error checking status")
Check Account Balance
Query your current SMS credit balance:
LabVIEW
# Get account balance
balance_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2/balance"
response = http_get(balance_url, headers)
if response.status == 200:
print("Available Credits:", response.body.data.balance)
print("Currency:", response.body.data.currency)
else:
print("Error fetching balance")
Complete Integration Examples
Error Handling
Implement robust error handling for production use:
LabVIEW
# LabVIEW SMS Integration with Error Handling
function send_sms_with_retry(recipient, message, max_retries = 3):
api_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2/sms/send"
for attempt in range(max_retries):
try:
response = http_post(api_url, headers, {
"sender_id": "SENDER",
"recipient": recipient,
"message": message,
"route": "transactional"
})
if response.status == 200:
return {
"success": true,
"message_id": response.body.data.message_id
}
# Wait before retry (exponential backoff)
sleep(2 ^ attempt)
catch error:
if attempt == max_retries - 1:
return {"success": false, "error": str(error)}
sleep(2 ^ attempt)
return {"success": false, "error": "Max retries exceeded"}
# Usage
result = send_sms_with_retry("1234567890", "Hello from LabVIEW!")
if result.success:
print("Message ID:", result.message_id)
else:
print("Failed:", result.error)
Framework Integration
Integrate with popular LabVIEW frameworks (LabVIEW):
LabVIEW - Framework Integration
# SMS Service Module for LabVIEW
module SmsService:
api_key = get_env("SMS_API_KEY")
base_url = "https://whitelabled.securesmsc.com/api/v2"
function get_headers():
return {
"Authorization": "Bearer " + api_key,
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
function send(recipient, message, route = "transactional"):
url = base_url + "/sms/send"
data = {
"sender_id": "SENDER",
"recipient": recipient,
"message": message,
"route": route
}
response = http_post(url, get_headers(), data)
return response.body
function send_bulk(recipients, message, route = "promotional"):
url = base_url + "/sms/send-bulk"
data = {
"sender_id": "SENDER",
"recipients": recipients,
"message": message,
"route": route
}
response = http_post(url, get_headers(), data)
return response.body
function get_status(message_id):
url = base_url + "/sms/status/" + message_id
response = http_get(url, get_headers())
return response.body
function get_balance():
url = base_url + "/balance"
response = http_get(url, get_headers())
return response.body
# Usage in your application
import SmsService
result = SmsService.send("1234567890", "Hello from LabVIEW!")
print(result)
