SMS or email notification

Hello Team

Is it possible to create SMS and email notification for a program? For example, when I register a TB patient, an SMS and email are sent to people that someone has been registered. If possible where can I read about this?

Hi @moses_mwale,

This is possible based on your configurations. Kindly check out the Documentation on Program notifications - Linked to Version 2.30.

Let us know how it goes.

Best,
James.

Hi Moses,

What sort of gateway are you using? I had a lot of problems setting up a Clickatell gateway via the DHIS2 ‘mobile configuration’ app (which contains a different Clickatell URL), and in the end (with @zubair’s help) I had to use an API call to set up the gateway instead. See the following community thread:

Cheers, Sam.
