The standard channel working mechanism needs a Motion API to notify a new incoming SMS message that must be saved in the provider configuration.

You can choose among 3 options in order to manage the XCALLY MOTION SMS channel:

  • Use the public https://chat.xcallymotion.com Proxy in order to route the SMS messages from the customer via service provider to your XCALLY MOTION server
  • Deploy your own Proxy (let's say chat.yourproxydomain.com)  in order to route the SMS messages from the customer via service provider to your XCALLY MOTION server

    💡 How it works

    The SMS Channel allows you to receive/send SMS from/to predefined providers, whose list is managed by the XCALLY Integration Support Team and is increasing according to market opportunities. 

    When the XCALLY Motion SMS Channel receives a request from that provider, it manages it providing a standard interface for all types of providers and the Agent will manage the SMS interaction transparently as well as any other request (mail, chat, and so on).

    Until the interaction remains open, any SMS coming from the same telephone number will be received and managed as belonging to the same interaction. When the Agent closes it, any other SMS coming from the same number will open a new interaction.
