Hello everyone,
Currently, it is only possible to send messages on Telegram and that’s a shame.
For my part, I use Signal in addition to Message (on Iphone). And I am going to propose a way to send messages via the scenes on Signal.
First, we will go through an external service (potentially they collect all your messages, it shouldn’t be too « sensitive »). This service « callmebot » => Free API to Send Signal Messaging - CallMeBot API
The idea is simple, I will show you for Signal.
(For Messenger and WhatsApp, same protocol, just change the tutorial on the callmebot.com site
On Signal
Retrieving the API key on Signal
We open Signal and send a message:
I allow callmebot to send me messages
The number to which you need to send the message is: +34603212597
The bot sends you a message containing an API key:
The APIKey created for you is: XXXXX
Sending messages via scenes on Gladys
For this, make your scene, in the actions to be performed you have this:
You create a new action and then configure it like this:
The URL is composed as follows:
https://api.callmebot.com/signal/send.php?phone=+336XXXXXXXX&apikey=XXXXX&text=Ceci+est+un+test
Testing the scene
We execute the scene and the bot sends us a message directly on Signal.
Writing a message
To write a message, it is clear that the format is particular:
&text=Voici+un+message
To be able to make more « complicated » messages, you can go through this site for example: https://www.urlencoder.org/
To make it simple, we will « encode » a sentence so that it is compatible with an http request.
We can see that the message has been « transformed » with a lot of %. It’s normal, it will be read correctly.
Here is the result:
Attention!
- The callmebot service receives all SMS in plain text, no security on this side so send non-sensitive information
- Do not share your API key, especially not on the forum, you can be spammed. In particular on this forum do not share the key (blur the images if necessary)
Enjoy ![]()
