Hi all,
I’ve searched but couldn’t find anything specific or tutorials on how to achieve that, that usually means I’m going in the wrong direction. Specially in openhab where I’m such a noob.
My idea was to make phone calls everytime my movement sensor triggers when my family (mobiles) are not on the network, I made it to work with Telegram IM but how many times we dismiss notifications on mobile, or even sometimes not connected due to roaming etc.
It seems Plivo/Twilio free trial allows to make some limited amount of calls: https://support.plivo.com/support/solutions/articles/17000011977-what-is-a-free-trial-account-
https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/223136107-How-does-Twilio-s-Free-Trial-work-
I wouldn’t even need to pick-up the call, but this would “alarm” me better than Telegram IMs.
And I saw someone in another post that REST API for PLIVO is simple, so, has anyone ever tested this? Or is there any binding for Plivo/Twilio? I’m looking at the HTTP binding but I’m a bit noob, if you have any pointers I would appreciate.
Here is how to make a call in Plivo:
Tks alot!
