Setting up Thinq.io SMS with the Vodia phone system
Setting thinq.io SMS on the Vodia phone system isn't that difficult however we will need to set up a few configurations in the thinq.io user portal
Configure your thingq.io number to use SMS
Setting up IP Allow List
In this section, you will need to add your Vodia phone system IP address under Messaging
Setting up inbound and outbound messaging URL
Outbound Messages settings: Enter your DNS for example https://YourDNS/recvsms
Chose "JSON"
Inbound Messages Messages settings: Enter your DNS for example https://YourDNS/recvsms
Choose "URL"
API
Thinq API is found below - it's called "Tokens." Please take a look at this example. Once you have created your API tokens, you should see the Tokenuser and Token key itself. You will need this information for the Vodia phone system.
User profile
Thinq user profile information is needed as the "Account id" Isn't shown with the API
Write your "Account ID" number, as we will use this on the Vodia phone system
Phone System SMS Settings
Navigate to your Vodia phone system "System Level," then go to "Messaging" -- Notifications

Please check below for visual aid.
Under the extension "ANI for SMS" you must use the SMS number programmed on thinq. This has to be done for all the users in the tenant. but the SMS number cannot be the same - SMS work individually, just like smartphones ;)
Testing it all out
