This was a proof of concept I built for Ruby Tuesday, using Azure/ASP, C# .Net and Micros ISL to integrate Twilio SMS messaging into a Micros RES 3700 system. For this test, we wanted to have the ability to text customers on to go orders, and have them alert the POS system when they arrive via SMS.
As a project for an employer, I cannot share the source code, but the solution worked something like this:
To send messages, a SIM interface communicates with a service on the RES server (built in C# .Net), which in turn communicates with an Azure web app (using ASP .Net) that has the Twilio API incorporated.
To receive messages, a webhook from Twilio interacted with the Azure web app, which stored the message in a database. The SIM interface triggers a message pull, which uses the service on the server side to grab new messages from the Azure web app and display them on the workstation.
