Delivering MO messages to your application

HTTP Webhook API

This is the preferred method as it provides guaranteed delivery.

Full details are in the Reference section: Receiving MO messages via HTTP Webhook

👍

Don't forget to whitelist Rock7 IP Addresses to receive data!

These are the IP addresses you will need to whitelist so that we can send data through your firewall:

109.74.196.135
212.71.235.32

Email delivery

Please note that this method of delivery can be less reliable than the HTTP POST method discussed above. Nonetheless, it can be a convenient, and human-readable way to deliver your messages.

You must first configure the email address(es) for delivery, which can be done by logging in to your RockBLOCK account.

When a message is sent by your RockBLOCK, we will send an email to your configured addresses. An example of the email format is shown below:

Subject'Message 171 from RockBLOCK 300234010753370'
BodyIMEI: 300234010753370 MOMSN: 171 Transmit Time: 12-10-02 14:59:7 UTC Iridium Latitude: 51.6173 Iridium Longitude: 0.2888 Iridium CEP: 3 km Data: 48656c6c6f20576f726c64 --
Attachment300234010753370-171.bin (11 bytes)

Your message appears hex-encoded in the body of the email. The unencoded message data is also attached.
Please refer to the table above (HTTP POST parameters) for a description of the other fields.
