# SMS Numbers

In the **SMS Numbers** section of the dashboard, you can view and manage the various numbers associated with your account (dedicated long codes and short codes). 

It also offers the flexibility to set the forwarding channel for **inbound messages**. Users can choose from several forwarding options, each catering to different integration and handling needs:

* Default setting
* HTTP
* SMPP

### Reply Delivery Channels

The **Default** setting refers to the Global setting for your user account meaning ALL replies that come back into your inbox. By selecting **Edit** you’ll be presented with a few options.

#### SMPP

SMPP (Short Message Peer to Peer) allows all inbound messages to be pushed over SMPP to your SMPP server when bound as an ESME to our platform.

#### Inbound Trigger

You can set up multiple triggers to define different actions based on various conditions or filters. For example, triggers can be set for messages containing specific words, coming from a specific number, or for any inbound messages. Each trigger can also define one or multiple actions, such as sending an email, sending an SMS, calling a URL, or adding/removing a number to/from a list.

#### HTTP&#x20;

This setting will allow a server URL to be called with an HTTP GET to push all replies over HTTP. The structure of the payload when we call your URL is as follows:&#x20;

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
https://www.yoururl.co.za/tmp/inbox/replies.php&to=1234567890&from=27123456789&charset=UTF8&message=Hello&code=1001&client_reference=123&mcc=655&mnc=01&mo_message_id=161145956
```

{% endcode %}
