Monopond Fax API PHP Client

#Building a Request To use Monopond SOAP PHP Client, start by including the MonopondSOAPClient.php then creating an instance of the client by supplying your credentials. Your username and password should be enclosed in quotation marks.

<?php
     include_once './MonopondSOAPClient.php';
     
     // TODO: Enter your own credentials here
     $client = new MonopondSOAPClientV2("myusername", "mypassword", MPENV::Production);
     
     // TODO: Set up your request here
 ?>

##SendFax ###Description This is the core function in the API allowing you to send faxes on the platform.

Your specific faxing requirements will dictate which send request type below should be used. The two common use cases would be the sending of a single fax document to one destination and the sending of a single fax document to multiple destinations.

###Sending a single fax: To send a fax to a single destination a request similar to the following example can be used:

// TODO: Put your file path here
 $filedata = fread(fopen("./test.txt", "r"), filesize("./test.txt"));
 $filedata = base64_encode($filedata);
 
 // TODO: Setup Document
 $document = new MonopondDocument();
 $document->FileName = "AnyFileName1.txt";
 $document->FileData = $filedata;
 $document->Order = 0;
 
 // TODO: Setup FaxMessage
 $faxMessage = new MonopondFaxMessage();
 $faxMessage->MessageRef = "Testing-message-1";
 $faxMessage->SendTo = "61011111111";
 $faxMessage->SendFrom = "Test Fax";
 $faxMessage->Documents = array($document);
 $faxMessage->Resolution = "normal";
 $faxMessage->Retries = 0;
 $faxMessage->BusyRetries = 2;
 $faxMessage->CLI = 123456;
 
 // TODO: Setup FaxSendRequest 
 $sendFaxRequest = new MonopondSendFaxRequest();
 $sendFaxRequest->BroadcastRef = "Broadcast-test-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->SendRef = "Send-Ref-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->FaxMessages[] = $faxMessage;
 $sendFaxRequest->CLI = 65432;

 // Call send fax method
 $sendRespone = $client->sendFax($sendFaxRequest);
 print_r($sendRespone);

###Sending multiple faxes: To send faxes to multiple destinations a request similar to the following example can be used. Please note the addition of another “FaxMessage”:

// TODO: Put your file path here
 $filedata = fread(fopen("./test.txt", "r"), filesize("./test.txt"));
 $filedata = base64_encode($filedata);
 
 // TODO: Setup Document
 $document = new MonopondDocument();
 $document->FileName = "AnyFileName1.txt";
 $document->FileData = $filedata;
 $document->Order = 0;
 $document2 = new MonopondDocument();
 $document2->FileName = "AnyFileName2.txt";
 $document2->FileData = $filedata;
 $document2->Order = 0;
 
 $document3 = new MonopondDocument();
 $document3->FileName = "AnyFileName3.txt";
 $document3->FileData = $filedata;
 $document3->Order = 0;
 
 // TODO: Setup FaxMessage
 $faxMessage = new MonopondFaxMessage();
 $faxMessage->MessageRef = "Testing-message-1";
 $faxMessage->SendTo = "61011111111";
 $faxMessage->SendFrom = "Test Fax";
 $faxMessage->Documents = array($document);
 $faxMessage->Resolution = "normal";
 $faxMessage->Retries = 0;
 $faxMessage->BusyRetries = 2;
 $faxMessage2 = new MonopondFaxMessage();
 $faxMessage2->MessageRef = "Testing-message-2";
 $faxMessage2->SendTo = "61011111111";
 $faxMessage2->SendFrom = "Test Fax 2";
 $faxMessage2->Documents = array($document $document3);
 $faxMessage2->Resolution = "normal";
 $faxMessage2->Retries = 0;
 $faxMessage2->BusyRetries = 3;
 // TODO: Setup FaxSendRequest 
 $sendFaxRequest = new MonopondSendFaxRequest();
 $sendFaxRequest->BroadcastRef = "Broadcast-test-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->SendRef = "Send-Ref-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->FaxMessages[] = $faxMessage;
 $sendFaxRequest->FaxMessages[] = $faxMessage2;
 

 // Call send fax method
 $sendRespone = $client->sendFax($sendFaxRequest);
 print_r($sendRespone);

###Sending faxes to multiple destinations with the same document (broadcasting): To send the same fax content to multiple destinations (broadcasting) a request similar to the example below can be used.

This method is recommended for broadcasting as it takes advantage of the multiple tiers in the send request. This eliminates the repeated parameters out of the individual fax message elements which are instead inherited from the parent send fax request. An example below shows SendFrom being used for both FaxMessages. While not shown in the example below further control can be achieved over individual fax elements to override the parameters set in the parent.

When sending multiple faxes in batch it is recommended to group them into requests of around 600 fax messages for optimal performance. If you are sending the same document to multiple destinations it is strongly advised to only attach the document once in the root of the send request rather than attaching a document for each destination.

 // TODO: Put your file path here
 $filedata = fread(fopen("./test.txt", "r"), filesize("./test.txt"));
 $filedata = base64_encode($filedata);
 
 // TODO: Setup Document
 $document = new MonopondDocument();
 $document->FileName = "AnyFileName1.txt";
 $document->FileData = $filedata;
 $document->Order = 0;
 
 // TODO: Setup FaxMessage
 $faxMessage = new MonopondFaxMessage();
 $faxMessage->MessageRef = "Testing-message-1";
 $faxMessage->SendTo = "61011111111";
 $faxMessage2 = new MonopondFaxMessage();
 $faxMessage2->MessageRef = "Testing-message-2";
 $faxMessage2->SendTo = "61011111111";
 // TODO: Setup FaxSendRequest 
 $sendFaxRequest = new MonopondSendFaxRequest();
 $sendFaxRequest->BroadcastRef = "Broadcast-test-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->SendRef = "Send-Ref-1";
 $sendFaxRequest->FaxMessages[] = $faxMessage;
 $sendFaxRequest->FaxMessages[] = $faxMessage2;
 $sendFaxRequest->Documents = array($document);
 $sendFaxRequest->SendFrom = "Test Fax";
 // Call send fax method
 $sendRespone = $client->sendFax($sendFaxRequest);
 print_r($sendRespone);

###Sending Microsoft Documents With DocMergeData: (This request only works in version 2.1(or higher) of the fax-api.)

This request is used to send a Microsoft document with replaceable variables or merge fields. The merge field follows the pattern <mf:key>. If your key is field1, it should be typed as <mf:field1> in the document. Note that the key must be unique within the whole document. The screenshots below are examples of what the request does.

Original .doc file:

###Response The response received from a SendFaxRequest matches the response you receive when calling the FaxStatus method call with a send verbosity level.

###SOAP Faults This function will throw one of the following SOAP faults/exceptions if something went wrong: InvalidArgumentsException, NoMessagesFoundException, DocumentContentTypeNotFoundException, or InternalServerException. You can find more details on these faults here.

##FaxStatus ###Description

This function provides you with a method of retrieving the status, details and results of fax messages sent. While this is a legitimate method of retrieving results we strongly advise that you take advantage of our callback service, which will push these fax results to you as they are completed.

When making a status request, you must provide at least a BroadcastRef, SendRef or MessageRef. The function will also accept a combination of these to further narrow the request query.

  • Limiting by a BroadcastRef allows you to retrieve faxes contained in a group of send requests.
  • Limiting by SendRef allows you to retrieve faxes contained in a single send request.
  • Limiting by MessageRef allows you to retrieve a single fax message.

There are multiple levels of verbosity available in the request; these are explained in detail below.

FaxStatusRequest Properties:

| Name | Required | Type | Description | |--- | --- | --- | --- | ---| |BroadcastRef| | String | User-defined broadcast reference. | |SendRef| | String | User-defined send reference. | |MessageRef| | String | User-defined message reference. | |Verbosity| | String | Verbosity String The level of detail in the status response. Please see below for a list of possible values.| |

Verbosity Levels:

Value Description
brief Gives you an overall view of the messages. This simply shows very high-level statistics, consisting of counts of how many faxes are at each status (i.e. processing, queued,sending) and totals of the results of these faxes (success, failed, blocked).
send send Includes the results from “brief” while also including an itemised list of each fax message in the request.
details details Includes the results from “send” along with details of the properties used to send the fax messages.
results Includes the results from “send” along with the sending results of the fax messages.
all all Includes the results from both “details” and “results” along with some extra uncommon fields.

###Sending a faxStatus Request with “brief” verbosity:

 // TODO: Setup FaxStatusRequest 
 $faxStatusRequest = new MonopondFaxStatusRequest();

##General Properties and File Formatting ###File Encoding All files are encoded in the Base64 encoding specified in RFC 2045 - MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions). The Base64 encoding is designed to represent arbitrary sequences of octets in a form that need not be humanly readable. A 65-character subset ([A-Za-z0-9+/=]) of US-ASCII is used, enabling 6 bits to be represented per printable character. For more information see http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

###Dates Dates are always passed in ISO-8601 format with time zone. For example: “2012-07-17T19:27:23+08:00”
