Using Vonage's SMS API we are able to connect an SMS number to the Netsapiens PBX. This allows you to send and receive SMS within the Netsapiens portal.

How Do I get an SMS number?

To order an SMS number, please raise a ticket to the support team ensure you include the domain you want it adding to. Note that at this time, selecting from a list of numbers is not supported, and the number is randomly generated.

Once you have submitted your ticket, an agent will provision a number on your account within 24 hours.

You will be able to find your number under "Inventory" -> "SMS Numbers.

TIP - Just like with regular phone numbers, you can freely move the SMS number to any domain you wish after it has been provisioned.
