IT Managers and Professionals:
A quick, step-by-step guide on integrating and connecting Interpage's Messaging (and Paging), Fax, Voice gateway and notification services with your corporate servers and enterprise platforms.
STEP 1
To initiate the following Interpage services:
Fax:
mail to youraccount-config@interpage.net
Subject: fax -[option 1] -[option n] 2135551212 [optional cover sheet text/info]
mail -s "fax -doca 2135551212" youraccount-config@interpage.net < docfile.doc
Voice Broadcast:
mail to youraccount-vconfig@interpage.net
Subject: voice -[option 1] -[option n] 2135551414
mail -s "voice -queuefail a@b.com 2135551414" youraccount-vconfig@interpage.net < file
STEP 2
Messaging and Paging:
mail to youraccount-config@interpage.net
Subject: tracking codes or comments
outsys smsgate 2135551616 "This is a test"
…and Interpage will take care of the rest!
QUEUE CONFIRMATION - Your mail (the "queue request") is received by Interpage
SUCCESS / FAIL SEND CONFIRMATION - Your message/fax is sent out to the given destination
If the message or fax is successfully received, a "success send" message is sent by Interpage to one or more configurable e-mail addresses to confirm receipt of the fax at the given destination.
If the message or fax is NOT successfully received, a "fail send" message is sent by Interpage to one or more configurable e-mail addresses to alert that a given fax has failed and may require re-transmission and/or further investigation.
Both success and fail send confirmation messages are flat/text files and easily parsable by any automated system or script, and can be directed to other destinations, such as mobile devices or individual email addresses as needed for real-time failure (and/or success) confirmations of sent messages and faxes.
STEP 3
Most Interpage Gateway services can be instructed to send a message via a number of submission options; this page details the simplest and most common means of doing so via simple mail (SMTP) commands.
If the request is OK (syntax and phone number are correct), Interpage will send back to one or more configurable email addresses a "queue success" message.
If the request is NOT OK (syntax and/or phone number is incorrect), Interpage will send back to one or more configurable e-mail addresses a "queue fail" message.
Both the success and fail queue confirmation messages are flat/text files and easily parsable by any automated system or script. Confirmations (queue, success, or both) can even be directed to your mobile device or any email address of your choosing for real-time monitoring and alerting of problems with queueing up messages.
