This integration requires RingCentral Open API, which is available with Premium or Ultimate RingCentral accounts

For more information please see https://www.ringcentral.com/office/plansandpricing.html

Mobile carriers implemented a new registration requirement to help verify messaging traffic from business phone numbers. These requirements apply to all RingCentral customers sending SMS from long code numbers, regardless of country and use case. See additional formation on How to enable SMS and campaign registration

To enable the SMS, kindly register the company first to the TCR via the SMS Campaign Registration Page or you can download the PDF form via TCR Brand and Campaign Registration PDF Form

Please make sure to do this, as Carriers are now requiring everyone to ensure we (RingCentral) are compliant with their guidelines and help identify real businesses, and cut down on spam. Failure to register may result in your SMS being blocked by carriers.

Once you have completed the form, please ensure to rename the file by replacing "Customer" with your company's name; this helps ensure RingCentral knows who has uploaded the form.

Once you have completed the TCR Brand and Campaign Registration PDF Form you will save the form to your computer rename the file and replace the “CUSTOMER” with your Company Name.

When you have completed the above step you can use the Secure Box Upload Link to upload/submit the completed form to RingCentral.

SmartAdvocate will be able to complete the integration configuration once the process mentioned above is completed.

Please note that registration is required regardless of Server or SaaS (Cloud) based Systems. 

Server Based System - please perform the following configuration

Kindly have your IT Professional configure Port 443 (or Port 80) on your server https://smartadvocate.atlassian.net/l/c/BkHN739r
