Globe Labs is Globe Telecom's developer platform. Connect a short code you have with a Globe Labs app to send and receive SMS with subscribers on Globe, one of the largest mobile networks in the Philippines.

Before you start

You'll need a Globe Labs app with a short code, from the Globe Labs developer site. From your app, you'll need its:

• Short code, App ID and App Secret.
• Passphrase, which Globe Labs assigns for sending.

Adding the channel

Go to Settings > Channels and click New Channel. Globe Labs is under SMS & Voice, or you can type its name in the search box. If your workspace's timezone isn't Asia/Manila, check Show other regions to find it.

Then fill in the form:

Field	What to enter
Short Code	Your app's short code
App ID	Your app's ID
App Secret	Your app's secret
Passphrase	The passphrase Globe Labs assigned

Click Add Channel.

Finishing setup

Once the channel is added, its configuration page shows a notify URI. Set it as the notify URI for SMS on your app's configuration page in Globe Labs, so that messages sent to your short code reach your workspace.

You can come back to the notify URI at any time from the channel's page.

Considerations

Messages are sent as plain text, and long messages are split into several. Any attachments are sent as links. Each part can be up to 160 characters.
