Integration for sending SMS via Nepal DoIT Centralized SMS gateway

From CHT version 4.22.0, SMS messages can be sent using the Nepal DoIT service.

Log in to the Nepal DoIT Gateway dashboard and get your “API Key” that you will use as the nepal-doit-api-key.

Next, save the nepal-doit-api-key in your CHT Core configuration as covered below.

CHT Core configuration

API keys

The integration uses the CHT Credentials service to retrieve the API key using the ID nepal_doit_sms:outgoing.

Use the CHT credentials API to securely store the credentials by running the commands below. Be sure to replace a valid user, pass and hostname in the command:

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: text/plain" https://<user>:<pass>@<hostname>/api/v1/credentials/nepal_doit_sms:outgoing -d 'nepal-doit-api-key'`

App settings

Update your app settings as follows.

{
  "sms": {
    "outgoing_service": "nepal-doit-sms",
    "nepal_doit_sms": {
      "url": "https://sms.doit.gov.np/api/sms"
    }
  }
}

Testing

Nepal DoIT SMS gateway does not provide a sandbox environment for testing. Once you get your API key, you can test your integration by sending a message to a valid phone number.
