Connecting a Play Mobile Channel
Play Mobile is an SMS operator for businesses in Uzbekistan, used by banks, payment systems and online stores to message their customers. Connect a short code you have with Play Mobile to send and receive SMS with your contacts.
Before you start
You'll need a short code from Play Mobile, along with the base URL, username and password it gives you for its API. Play Mobile doesn't publish these online, so ask your Play Mobile contact for them.
Adding the channel
Go to Settings > Channels and click New Channel. Play Mobile is under SMS & Voice, or you can type its name in the search box. If your workspace's timezone isn't Asia/Tashkent or Asia/Samarkand, check Show other regions to find it.
Then fill in the form:
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Base URL | The base URL of Play Mobile's API that it gave you |
| Short Code | Your Play Mobile short code |
| Username | Your Play Mobile username |
| Password | Your Play Mobile password |
Click Add Channel.
Finishing setup
Once the channel is added, its configuration page shows a receive URL. Give it to Play Mobile, so that messages sent to your short code reach your workspace.
You can come back to these at any time from the channel's page.
Considerations
Messages are sent as plain text, and any attachments are sent as links. Long messages are split into several.
