Question

Using PHP how do you get the return state. Whether the message has been received or not. I found this documentation, but it isn’t very helpful when using PHP:

http://blog.postageapp.com/tag/php/

I am not sure, but will this be valid:

if($this->postageapp->send()==true){ # returns JSON response from the server

//do something, 

}else{

//otherwise

}

Thanks

The send method returns a JSON object whether the call was successful or not. I think PHP always evaluates this return to be true.

Therefore, you need to examine the returned object.

$retVal = $this->postageapp->send();
$success = retVal->response->status == 'ok';
