See more Clickatell Examples

Demonstrate how to send a Clickatell SMS text message using an HTTP GET request with query params. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    // Implements the following CURL command:

    // curl -G https://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg \
    //   -d "api_id=xxxx" \
    //   -d "user=yourUsername" \
    //   -d "password=yourPassword" \
    //   -d "from=yourFromPhoneNumber" \
    //   -d "to=receiverPhoneNumber" \
    //   -d "text=The text of your message"

    // Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
    // Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

    let queryParams = CkoJsonObject()!
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "api_id", value: "xxxx")
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "user", value: "yourUsername")
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "password", value: "yourPassword")
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "from", value: "yourFromPhoneNumber")
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "to", value: "receiverPhoneNumber")
    queryParams.updateString(jsonPath: "text", value: "The text of your message")

    // If the following URL does not work, then try "https://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg"
    let resp = CkoHttpResponse()!
    success = http.httpParams(verb: "GET", url: "https://platform.clickatell.com/messages/http/send", json: queryParams, response: resp)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("\(resp.statusCode.intValue)")
    print("\(resp.bodyStr!)")
