i need to call a HTTP request in ubuntu how do i do it? I can’t seem to find an answer around on how to to do it?

How do run the following url without calling a browser like lynx to do it?

http://www.smsggglobal.com/http-api.php?action=sendsms&user=asda&password=123123&&from=123123&to=1232&text=adsdad

in your command prompt, run the following:

curl http://www.smsggglobal.com/http-api.php?action=sendsms&user=asda&password=123123&&from=123123&to=1232&text=adsdad

the curl command executes an http request for a given url and parameters.

if you need to specify another HTTP method, use curl -X <TYPE> <URL>, like this:

curl -X POST http://www.smsggglobal.com/http-api.php?action=sendsms&user=asda&password=123123&&from=123123&to=1232&text=adsdad
