M3 Tech provides SMS gateway services to businesses in Nigeria. Connect a number or short code you have with M3 Tech to send and receive SMS with your contacts.

Before you start

You'll need a number or short code from M3 Tech, along with the username and password it gives you for its SMS API. M3 Tech doesn't publish these online, so ask your M3 Tech contact for them.

Adding the channel

Go to Settings > Channels and click New Channel. M3 Tech is under SMS & Voice, or you can type its name in the search box. If your workspace's timezone isn't Asia/Karachi, check Show other regions to find it.

Then fill in the form:

Field	What to enter
Number	Your number with its country code, or your short code
Username	Your M3 Tech username
Password	Your M3 Tech password

Click Add Channel.

Finishing setup

Once the channel is added, its configuration page shows four URLs to give M3 Tech, so that messages and updates on yours reach your workspace:

• The Received URL, which messages sent to your number are sent to.
• The Sent URL, Delivered URL and Failed URL, which updates on your messages are sent to.

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.
