Infobip SMS
This guide explains how to connect your Infobip account to Moveo to enable two-way SMS for your AI Agent. It is intended for business users and technical operators who want to configure SMS messaging for their AI Agent using Infobip.
It's highly recommended to take a look at the Infobip documentation to get a better understanding of the platform and its features.
Overview
Moveo supports two-way SMS conversations between your AI Agent and end-users by integrating with Infobip, a global messaging platform. Infobip connects businesses to mobile carriers worldwide, allowing you to send and receive SMS without a direct agreement with telecom providers. This integration streamlines SMS communication within your AI-powered workflows.
Your AI Agent can send outbound messages and respond to inbound SMS using a provisioned number, fully managed through your Infobip account.

To use Infobip with Moveo, you need an active Infobip account and a number that supports two-way SMS. Follow these steps:
