A webhook, also known as a callback, is a mechanism used to send a message from one application to another over the internet. It is a way for one application to notify another application when a specific event has occurred.

In the context of SMS messaging, a webhook or callback can be used to receive information about the delivery status of a message or to receive incoming SMS messages. When a message is sent via an SMS gateway, the gateway can use a webhook to notify the originating application of the delivery status of the message. Similarly, when an incoming SMS message is received, the SMS gateway can use a webhook to notify the receiving application of the new message.

Webhooks are typically implemented as HTTP requests, with the event information being sent in the request body as a JSON payload. The receiving application can then process the information and take any necessary actions.

An SMS API is a software interface that allows developers to programmatically send and receive SMS messages. An SMS API enables developers to build SMS functionality into their own applications, allowing them to send and receive SMS messages directly from their own systems.

These endpoints can be used to send messages, receive incoming messages, query the delivery status of messages, manage contacts, and perform other tasks related to SMS messaging.

An SMS API is usually provided by an SMS gateway, which acts as an intermediary between the application and the mobile network. The SMS gateway is responsible for delivering the messages to the mobile network and receiving incoming messages, while the application communicates with the SMS gateway using the SMS API.
