# How do I connect SecurEnvoy to MessageBird's SMS Gateway?

<figure><img src="/files/HPbHmyqQutQBlOzjEiIP" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

It's quite easy to connect SecurEnvoy's OTP software 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 SecurEnvoy is only supported by our old API; you ca read the [documentation on this API](https://www.messagebird.com/en/developers-old) for more information.&#x20;

### Configuration of a new SecurEnvoy server

During the [installation process for a new SecurEnvoy server](https://www.securenvoy.com/new-files/server-installation-guide.pdf), you have to step through the **Advanced Configuration Wizard**. To connect SecurEnvoy to our SMS Gateway, it's important to enter the correct info within the SMS/Voice Gateways tab:

* **Country Dial Code:**\
  Enter the country code according to the location of your server (for example 44 for the United Kingdom).\ <br>
* **Type:**\
  Select the type of connection you want: Web SMS, Modem, Voice, Mail SMS or SMPP. In case you want an API connection, choose *Web SMS*. To set up a connection for voice messages, select 'Voice'. \ <br>
* **3rd-party SMS Gateway:**\
  Select our SMS Gateway 'MessageBird' from the drop-down menu.\ <br>
* **UserID & Password:**\
  Enter the username and password of your API. Keep in mind that it's possible the password of your MessageBird Account and the one to access your API [may be different](https://support.messagebird.com/hc/en/articles/200787661).

### Connect our SMS Gateway to an existing SecurEnvoy server

Open the SecurEnvoy Advanced Config on your SecurEnvoy-server. Navigate to the SMS/Voice Gateways tab and hit the 'Add button', then simply follow the same steps above.
