In order to send a message you must have an active channel and perform an HTTP request to the following endpoint with a valid access key
When you send a message, a contact is automatically created with a contactId
matching the receiver's identifier if one doesn't already exist. For instance, sending an email generates a contact with an email identifier, while sending an SMS creates one with a phone number identifier.
When sending outbound messages as well as setting the receiver
information you must set the message body
field in all cases except for sending a message template when you must only set the template
field.
Multiple recipient messages are only possible through the Email platform. For other platforms, a message with multiple reciever
entries will be rejected.
When sending messages that contain media links these must be publicly accessible. Otherwise you can upload media by creating requesting a pre-signed media URL. Firstly make a POST request to the following endpoint with the content type of the media you will be uploading set in the request body.
There are two methods for generating a presigned URL: one is channel-independent, allowing it to be used across any channel, while the other restricts usage to a specified channel ID.
From the response you will get the following details:
mediaUrl: This will be the URL you set in any message bodies where you send the uploaded media
uploadUrl: This is the URL you will need to make a request to to upload your media file
uploadMethod: This is the HTTP method to make an upload i.e. POST
uploadFormData: Set this as the fields in form-data of your POST request along with an additional field called file. This should include your file data. An example using CURL
No need to specify any AccessKey on the below call as all the required data is provided in the form data.
Once you have uploaded the file using the mediaUrl, this should be used as the URL when sending messages with media.
For media that you have uploaded to be sent in a channels message you can retrieve this as follows
For media sent to your channel you can download this media from the following endpoint
