[Sam Johnson <samuel.johnson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I’ve created an account with Clickatell, but despite following the documentation listed below, I’m struggling to configure it in my DHIS2 instance (v2.30).

In the ‘Mobile Configuration’ module, I’ve selected ‘Add gateway’, and entered the following:

  *   ‘Auth Token’ is my Clickatell API key (ending in ==)
  *   For ‘Login’ I’ve tried both my Clickatell username (samueldjohnson) and my email address (which is what Clickatell actually asks for when I log into their portal)
  *   In DHIS2, I’ve made sure that ‘Enable message SMS notifications’ is ticked in Settings | Messaging.
  *   I’m doing all testing as superuser (so roles/authorities aren’t an issue).

(Note that despite the DHIS2 documentation<https://docs.dhis2.org/2.30/en/user/html/mobile_sms_service.html> saying that only login+password or API key need to be set up, I’ve had to enter both into the DHIS2 ‘Mobile Configuration’ module, as the screen enforces all three fields as mandatory.)

However, whenever I use the ‘Mobile Configuration’ module’s ‘Send SMS’ feature to send a test SMS message, it fails.  (In the ‘List of sent SMS’, it shows the correct number, but has [unknown] as recipient, and ‘FAILED’ as status.)  I’ve configured the correct countries in Clickatell, and have successfully sent test messages to the same phone with API calls (using curl).  Am I missing something in my DHIS2 configuration?

Many thanks for any tips/enlightenment that anyone is able to provide!

Cheers, Sam.

Hi everyone

Are you trying to set up SMS to receive information, to send out messages such as notifications etc or both?

For receiving (aggregate) data, I would suggest reviewing the docs here:

https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/mobile_sms_command.html

You may want to start with adding an SMS gateway to your configuration for sending back feedback and notifications as well. Popular services include BulkSMS and Clickatell.

https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/mobile_sms_service.html

After this is configured, you would also have to configure the notifications. If it is for a program you can read more about that here

https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/manage_program_notification.html

Dear all,

I have DHIS2 ver. 2.25 installed on a server.
Can anyone help me how to configure SMS? What hardware or software do I have to prepare? (like what kind of cellphone will be used, SMS gateway application, etc.).
Step-by-step guidance will be very helpful.

Best regards,
Adhi Andrianto
