Configure authentication for the SMS provider webhook

When you configure the SMS provider webhook to forward SMS messages to SMS Gateway, you can provide a URL for either an unsecured or secured connection:

• Unsecured connection: http://<host-address:unsecured-port>/sms.receiver/SmsRecv
• Secured connection: https://<host-address:secured-port>/sms.receiver/SmsRecv

For additional security, you can configure HTTP Basic authentication for the webhook in the SMS Gateway configuration.

1. Specify a user name and password for the webhook.

   • Single-tenant environment: In the SMS Gateway configuration, specify the SMS_WEBHOOK_USERNAME and SMS_WEBHOOK_PASSWORD environment variables.

   For example, on Docker:

   - SMS_WEBHOOK_USERNAME=myUserName
   - SMS_WEBHOOK_PASSWORD=p4ssw0rd
   

   • Multi-tenant JSON configuration: In your tenant configuration JSON file, configure a webHookCredentials object with username and password properties.

"tenants": [ { "tenantPhoneNumber": "+12345556789", "description": "Number for accessing account information", ... "webHookCredentials": { "username": "myUserName", "password": "p4ssw0rd" } ... } ]

1. In the console for your SMS provider, configure the webhook for the tenant by adding the user name and password to the URL in the following format: `https://<user:password>@<host address:secure port>/sms.receiver/SmsRecv`

  For example:
  ```
https://myUserName:p4ssw0rd@123.4.5.67:9443/sms.receiver/SmsRecv
