Sending an SMS to External server API using WordPress
Channel: TechiePress
Date: 2020-04-22

In this video, we send a sample SMS text to our external API to determine what data and information is sent back to our WordPress website back end.

We use the Post Methods in WordPress and wp_remote_post() to send the required details by the external server. On return, the server sends us some responses.

In this plugin, we are building an SMS sending plugin for WordPress API integration using an External API. 

This video series shows a clear use of the wp_remote_post function of WordPress and how we determine what data goes where. We use the json_encode and json_decode on the passing of data and receiving it so we have proper data.
