How to send a message from MS Access using twilio?

问题

I have done a lot of research but I have found nothing. Has anyways already done this? Any examples?

I want to send a message using a button in a form so it should call a vba code and use some information in the same form to send the message. Any ideas would be great!!

I'm using Access 2010

The short answer is you need to POST to the Twilio REST API using VBA.

Here is a bit of sample code that shows how to do this using XMLHTTP:

Public Function GET_MESGS()
    Dim Message As String
    Dim Number As String

    On Error GoTo Error_Handler

    Const NOINTERNETAVAILABLE = -2147012889

    Dim objSvrHTTP As XMLHTTP
    Dim varProjectID, varCatID, strT As String

    Set objSvrHTTP = New XMLHTTP
    objSvrHTTP.Open "POST", "https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/[YOUR_ACCOUNT_SID]/SMS/", False, "[YOUR_ACCOUNT_SID]", "[YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN]"

    objSvrHTTP.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
    objSvrHTTP.send "message=" & Message & "&from=15555555555&to=" & Number

    debug.print objSvrHTTP.responseText

    ‘If objSvrHTTP.status = 201 Then
    ‘txtXML = objSvrHTTP.responseText
    ‘MsgBox "Sent"
    ElseIf objSvrHTTP.status = 400 Then
        MsgBox "Failed with error# " & _
            objSvrHTTP.status & _
            " " & objSvrHTTP.statusText & vbCrLf & vbCrLf
    ElseIf objSvrHTTP.status = 401 Then
        MsgBox "Failed with error# " & objSvrHTTP.status & _
            " " & objSvrHTTP.statusText & vbCrLf & vbCrLf
    Else
        MsgBox "Failed with error# " & objSvrHTTP.status & _
            " " & objSvrHTTP.statusText
    End If

Exit_Procedure:

    On Error Resume Next

    Set objSvrHTTP = Nothing

Exit Function

Error_Handler:

    Select Case Err.Number

        Case NOINTERNETAVAILABLE
            MsgBox "Connection to the internet cannot be made or " & _
                "Twilio website address is wrong"

        Case Else
            MsgBox "Error: " & Err.Number & "; Description: " & Err.Description

            Resume Exit_Procedure

        Resume

    End Select

End Function
