It's quite easy to connect **RSA SecurID® On-demand (SMS) Authenticator** to your MessageBird Account. This article describes how to get up & running for sending One Time Password messages in no time. Keep in mind that for the moment One Time Password for RSA SecurID is only supported by our old API (not the REST API); you can read the [documentation on this API](https://www.messagebird.com/en/developers-old) for more information. ### RSA SecurID® On-demand (SMS) Authenticator configuration Configuration setup is done within the RSA Authentication Manager’s Security Console. There you'll find three sections: Tokencode Delivery by SMS, SMS Provider and SMS HTTP Proxy. You won't need the last setting to connect with MessageBird. #### Tokencode Delivery by SMS setup * **Delivery by SMS:**\ Select the check-box to enable delivery of One Time Password messages.\
* **User Attribute to Provide SMS Destination:**\ Select the attribute that will maintain SMS data.\
* **Default country code:**\ Enter the country code according to the location of your server (for example 44 for the United Kingdom).\

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.bird.com/connectivity-platform/other-integrations/how-do-i-connect-rsa-securid-emc-to-messagebirds-sms-gateway.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
