Question: How can I capture the CLI (number that the SMS originates from)?

Whenever you receive an SMS message it is automatically processed by Ozeki Message Server. This means that both the sender number (CLI, number that the SMS originates from) and the message text is availble for your application. The answer to your question is: YES, it is possible to capture the sender number of the messages.

If you want to work with these captured numbers, you can use files, http or an SQL database to connect to the message server to your own software. If you let us know, how do you plan to connect Ozeki Message Server to your software, we can give you detailed information on how it could be done.
