.. _firebase_provider:
Firebase Provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Firebase provider was added in privacyIDEA 3.0. It sends notifications
via the Google Firebase service and this is used for the :ref:`push_token`.
For an exemplary configuration, you may have a look on the articles on the
privacyIDEA community website `tagged with push token `_.
**JSON config file**
This is the location of the configuration file of
the Firebase service. It has to be located on the privacyIDEA
server.
**apikey**
The API key your Android app should use to connect to the Firebase service.
**apiios**
The API key your iOS app should use to connect to the Firebase service.
**appid**
The app ID your Android app should use to connect to the Firebase service.
**appidios**
The app ID your iOS app should use to connect to the Firebase service.
**projectid**
The project ID of the Firebase project, that is used to connect
the app to.
**projectnumber***
The project number of the Firebase project, that is used to
connect the app to.
**registration URL**
This is the URL of your privacyIDEA server, which the push App should
connect to for the second registration step.
This URL usually ends with ``/ttype/push``. Note, that the FQDN
of your privacyIDEA server could be different for the smartphone
App to connect to, than you usually use for connecting via the
Web interface.
**time to live**
This is the time (in seconds) how long the privacyIDEA server
accepts the response of the second registration step.
The smartphone could have connection issues, so the second step
could take some time to happen.
You can get all the necessary values *JSON config file*,
*project ID*, *project number*, *app ID* and *API key*
from your Firebase console.
HTTP provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. index:: HTTP Provider
The HTTP provider can be used for any SMS gateway that provides a simple
HTTP POST or GET request. This is the most commonly used provider.
Each provider type defines its own set of parameters.
The following parameters can be used. These are parameters, that define the
behaviour of the SMS Gateway definition.
**CHECK_SSL**
If the URL is secured via TLS (HTTPS), you can select, if the
certificate should be verified or not.
**PROXY**, **HTTP_PROXY** and **HTTP_PROXY**
You can specify a proxy to connect to the HTTP gateway. Use the specific values
to separate HTTP and HTTPS.
**REGEXP**
Regular expression to modify the phone number to make it compatible with provider.
**HTTP_METHOD**
Can be GET or POST.
**RETURN_FAIL**
If the text of ``RETURN_FAIL`` is found in the HTTP response
of the gateway privacyIDEA assumes that the SMS could not be sent
and an error occurred.
**RETURN_SUCCESS**
You can either use ``RETURN_SUCCESS`` or ``RETURN_FAIL``.
If the text of ``RETURN_SUCCESS`` is found in the HTTP response
of the gateway privacyIDEA assumes that the SMS was sent successfully.
**TIMEOUT**
The timeout for contacting the API and receiving a response.
**URL**
This is the URL for the gateway.
**USERNAME** and **PASSWORD**
These are the username and the password if the HTTP request requires
**basic authentication**.
.. todo:: PARAMETER in HTTP SMS Provider deprecated?
**PARAMETER**
This can contain a dictionary of arbitrary fixed additional
parameters. Usually this would also contain an ID or a password
to identify you as a sender.
Options
.......
You can define additional options. These are sent as parameters in the GET or
POST request.
.. note:: The fixed parameters and the options can not have the same name! If
you need an options, that has the same name as a parameter, you must not
fill in the corresponding parameter.
.. note:: You can use the tags ``{phone}`` and ``{otp}`` to specify the mobile
number and the otp value.
Examples
........
Clickatell
''''''''''
In case of the **Clickatell** provider the configuration will look like this:
* **URL**: http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg
* **HTTP_METHOD**: GET
* **RETURN_SUCCESS**: ID
Set the additional **options** to be passed as HTTP GET parameters:
* user: *YOU*
* password: *your password*
* api_id: *you API ID*
* text: "Your OTP value is {otp}"
* to: {phone}
This will consturct an HTTP GET request like this::
http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg?user=YOU&password=YOU&\
api_id=YOUR API ID&text=....&to=....
where ``text`` and ``to`` will contain the OTP value and the mobile
phone number. privacyIDEA will assume a successful sent SMS if the
response contains the text "ID".
GTX-Messaging
'''''''''''''
GTX-Messaging is an SMS Gateway located in Germany.
The configuration looks like this (see [#gtxapi]_):
* **URL**: https://http.gtx-messaging.net/smsc.php
* **HTTP_METHOD**: GET
* **CHECK_SSL**: yes
* **RETURN_SUCCESS**: 200 OK
You need to set the additional **options**:
* user:
* pass:
* to: {phone}
* text: Your OTP value is {otp}.
.. note:: The *user* and *pass* are not the credentials you use to login.
You can find the required credentials for sending SMS in your GTX
messaging account when viewing the details of your *routing account*.
Twilio
''''''
You can also use the **Twilio** service for sending SMS. [#twilio]_.
* **URL**: https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/B...8/Messages
* **HTTP_METHOD**: POST
For basic authentication you need:
* **USERNAME**: *your accountSid*
* **PASSWORD**: *your password*
Set the additional **options** as POST parameters:
* From: *your Twilio phone number*
* Body: {otp}
* To: {phone}
Sipgate provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sipgate provider connects to https://samurai.sipgate.net/RPC2 and takes only
two arguments *USERNAME* and *PASSWORD*.
Parameters:
**USERNAME**
The sipgate username.
**PASSWORD**
The sipgate password.
**PROXY**
You can specify a proxy to connect to the HTTP gateway.
It takes not options.
If you activate debug log level you will see the submitted SMS and the response
content from the Sipgate gateway.
SMPP Provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The SMPP provider was added in privacyIDEA 2.22. It uses an SMS Center via the SMPP protocol to
deliver SMS to the users.
You need to specify the **SMSC_HOST** and **SMSC_PORT** to talk to the SMS center.
privacyIDEA need to authenticate against the SMS center. For this you can add the parameters
**SYSTEM_ID** and **PASSWORD**. The parameter **S_ADDR** is the sender's number, shown to the users
receiving an SMS.
For the other parameters contact your SMS center operator.

SMTP provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The SMTP provider sends an email to an email gateway. This is a specified,
fixed mail address.
The mail should contain the phone number and the OTP value. The email gateway
will send the OTP via SMS to the given phone number.
**BODY**
This is the body of the email. You can use this to explain the user, what
he should do with this email.
You can use the tags ``{phone}`` and ``{otp}`` to
replace the phone number or the one time password.
**MAILTO**
This is the address where the email with the OTP value will be sent.
Usually this is a fixed email address provided by your SMTP Gateway
provider. But you can also use the tags ``{phone}`` and ``{otp}`` to
replace the phone number or the one time password.
**SMTPIDENTIFIED**
Here you can select on of your centrally defined SMTP servers.
**SUBJECT**
This is the subject of the email to be sent.
You can use the tags ``{phone}`` and ``{otp}`` to
replace the phone number or the one time password.
The default *SUBJECT* is set to *{phone}* and the default *BODY* to *{otp}*.
You may change the *SUBJECT* and the *BODY* accordingly.
Script provider
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The *Script provider* calls a script which can take care of sending the SMS.
The script takes the phone number as the only parameter. The message is expected at stdin.
Scripts are located in the directory ``/etc/privacyidea/scripts/``. You can change this default
location by setting the value in ``PI_SCRIPT_SMSPROVIDER_DIRECTORY`` in ``pi.cfg``.
In the configuration of the Script provider you can set two attributes.
**SCRIPT**
This is the file name of the script without the directory part.
**BACKGROUND**
Here you can choose, whether the sript should be started and run in the background or if the
HTTP requests waits for the script to finish.
