FritzBoxShell Sending SMS?

Hi,

Can we send a SMS to a number from a script !

Hi,

in general it is possible with using a web service with an API for sending the SMS (which usually will cost something) or building your own gateway which means you need the hardware for it (e.g. a UMTS stick).

Why do you want to use SMS? In case you lose internet? What about a telegram bot?

Cheers, Johannes

I have a fritzbox 6850 5G, i want to use the sms sending feature with a PhP Curl or T64 APi.

Ah okay. Was not aware of that. The thing is that I don't own such a device. So will be quite difficult for me to assist here. But I can try to find out or hope that someone else also follows this thread.

@capsload2 I have uploaded a version to be tested here: https://github.com/jhubig/FritzBoxShell/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

Unfortunately I cannot test on my side because i don't have a 5G capable FritzBox. Please let me know if it works. Thanks.
