Sakari Public API

Sakari is a cloud-based messaging platform that provides businesses with a powerful and easy-to-use tool for sending SMS and MMS messages. The Sakari Public API allows developers to integrate messaging capabilities into their own applications and platforms.

API Documentation

The Sakari Public API documentation can be found at https://developer.sakari.io/docs. The documentation provides detailed information on each of the available endpoints, parameters, and response formats.

Example API Code in JavaScript

Here are some sample API calls using the Sakari Public API in JavaScript.

Authentication

Before making any API requests, you'll need to authenticate your application by passing your API key in the header of your request. Here's an example of how to authenticate your application using the axios library in JavaScript:

const axios = require('axios');

const apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY_HERE';

const headers = {
  'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`
};

const baseUrl = 'https://api.sakari.io/v1/';

axios.defaults.baseURL = baseUrl;
axios.defaults.headers.common = headers;

Sending an SMS Message

To send an SMS message, you'll need to make a POST request to the /sms/send endpoint with the recipient's phone number and the message text. Here's an example of how to send an SMS message using the axios library in JavaScript:

const data = {
  to: '+1234567890',
  body: 'Hello, world!'
};

const response = await axios.post('sms/send', data);
console.log(response.data);

Sending an MMS Message

To send an MMS message, you'll need to make a POST request to the /mms/send endpoint with the recipient's phone number, the message text, and the URL of the media to be included in the message. Here's an example of how to send an MMS message using the axios library in JavaScript:

const data = {
  to: '+1234567890',
  body: 'Check out this cool image!',
  media_url: 'https://example.com/image.jpg'
};

const response = await axios.post('mms/send', data);
console.log(response.data);

Retrieving Account Information

To retrieve information about your Sakari account, you'll need to make a GET request to the /account endpoint. Here's an example of how to retrieve account information using the axios library in JavaScript:

const response = await axios.get('account');
console.log(response.data);
