Send SMS - HTTP/GET

Example of sending for the GET version of the LabsMobile SMS API. This is a basic and simple method of sending SMS messages from an application or software created in C++ passing all the parameters in the same url.

It is important to encode all the values ​​as url (with the function urlencode() for example).

You can see and download the GET API manual of LabsMobile in the following URL: https://www.labsmobile.com/en/api-sms/api-versions/http-get
