What is an SMS API?
An SMS API is a special way for computer software to communicate with text messaging. It helps people add texting features to their apps or systems. This special software has a set of rules and functions that let people send and get text messages automatically.
There are SMS APIs for Java, HTTP, and PHP. Once you set up an SMS API, you can see the status of your messages, send and get different types of texts, and even see what people wrote back to you without needing a password.
