Before you start

You need an Orderry or RO App account and a BulkSMS account with credits.

Orderry and RO App have a built-in BulkSMS integration and are set up the same way. The only difference is the webhook address in step 3.

Open the BulkSMS integration

In Orderry or RO App, go to Settings > Integrations and click Configure next to BulkSMS.

Create a BulkSMS API token

Log in to your BulkSMS account and go to Settings > Developers.

Click Create API Token and give it a name, for example Orderry. Copy the Token ID and Token Secret into the matching fields in Orderry or RO App. The secret is only shown once.

Create a webhook for delivery updates

In BulkSMS, go to Settings > Advanced > Webhooks and click Create Webhook. Fill it in as follows, then click Create:

Setting Value
Webhook name Any name, for example your company name
Trigger when A status update arrives for a sent message
URL Orderry: https://api.orderry.com/hooks/ns/bulksms
RO App: https://api.roapp.io/hooks/ns/bulksms
Invoke with Many messages (recommended)
Active Ticked

Choose who messages come from

Enter a Sender ID (your business name) or a verified phone number from your BulkSMS account in the Phone number / Sender ID field.

To request a Sender ID, go to Settings > Message Settings > Sender IDs in BulkSMS. Approval usually takes up to a day, and you need to have bought credits at least once.

Orderry and RO App use one sender. Some countries require Sender IDs to be registered first; our support team can tell you if yours does.

Turn it on

Tick Integration enabled and save.

Set up your automatic notifications, or send a message by hand to your own number to test it. Sent messages are listed under Reports > Marketing > Sent SMS.

All setup and ready to go!

If you have any questions, please contact our support team. Include your account name and put Orderry or RO App in the subject line, and we'll be happy to help.
