Voxeo Developers Corner

With our announcement of Prophecy 10 today, you can now add SMS and instant messaging (IM) to any existing VoiceXML, CallXML or CCXML application. When you login to our Evolution developer portal (and you can sign up for a free account if you don’t have one) and go into the settings for one of your applications through the Application Manager, you will now see that you can choose to make an application a voice application, a text-messaging application, or both:

Once you have added text messaging capability to your application, you can switch to the Contact Methods tab where you can add an SMS-enabled phone number and/or attach IM IDs to the application:

Now you have one application accessible via multiple channels. We’ll write more in the next bit about how to tweak your apps to work with multiple channels… but for those who want to login right now and get started, go right ahead!

P.S. Note you can also do this with Tropo.com applications as well
