B4J Question (Solved) Trying to get Textbelt (free SMS) to work

[JakeBullet70]

Hi all.

I am trying to get Textbelt to work. It is a free SMS messaging service. I have looked at the examples and tried them but keep getting back an invalid phone number. Anyway, I have to start work so I thought I would post the source and if anyone can get it working please let me know.

Thanks and happy b4j!

You need to first understand the meaning of -d: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html

Dim j As HttpJob
j.Initialize("j", Me)
Dim number As String = "5551234567"
Dim msg As String = "hello!"
j.PostString("http://textbelt.com/text", $"number=${number}&message=${msg}"$)

Hi to all
I'm trying your code as suggested by erel but i get always the same error

Waiting for debugger to connect...
Program started.
{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Invalid phone number."
}

I also entered the country code before the number (39) for italy but the error is the same.
It does not work for Italy?
Thanks
