MedTunnel: Send Message with File Attachment

See more MedTunnel Examples

Demonstrates the MedTunnel SendMessage method to send a message with a file attachment to one or more recipients. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

local http = chilkat.Http.new()

-- Implements the following CURL command:

-- curl https://server.medtunnel.com/MedTunnelMsg/api/Message/SendMessage -X POST -k
--         -F "ApplicationId=yourApplicationId" -F "LocationId=yourLocationId"
--         -F "MedTunnelId=yourMedTunnelId" -F "MedTunnelPassword=yourMedTunnelPassword"
--         -F "To=recipientsMedTunnelId"
--         -F "Body=Test of SendMessage"
--         -F "file1=@qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg"
