Libraries & SDKs

The API is a clean REST + JSON interface, so it works from any language with an HTTP client. Every endpoint page in these docs includes ready-to-paste examples in eight languages:

Language	HTTP client used in examples
cURL	—
Node.js	Built-in fetch (Node 18+)
Python	requests
PHP	curl extension
Ruby	net/http (stdlib)
Java	java.net.http.HttpClient (Java 11+)
Go	net/http (stdlib)
.NET	HttpClient (C#)

Pick your language once in any code block — the choice follows you across the entire site.

The full loop in your language

For webhook receivers in Python, Node.js and PHP, see the delivery webhook examples.

Package availability

The maintained source packages currently have these identities:

Package	Language	Source version	Send methods
@23telecom/sms	TypeScript	0.1.0	send, sendIndividual
telecom23	Python	0.1.0	send, send_individual
23telecom/sms	PHP	Source package	sendSms, sendIndividual

The TypeScript source version is 0.1.0; the Python source is also 0.1.0.

These SDKs are not yet published to npm, PyPI or Packagist; install commands will appear here once they are. Until then, use the eight-language examples above or generate a typed client from the OpenAPI 3.1 specification. Both routes call the same documented REST contract and work with free sandbox keys.

AI agents

The official MCP server is publicly available as a version-pinned npm package and adds send-safety controls for AI clients.

Integration tips that save support tickets

• Store the key in an environment variable like the examples do — rotating keys then never touches code.
• Treat messages[].message_id as your join key between send responses, status polls and webhook events.
• Handle 429 with backoff (rate limits) and monitor credit_blocked before large sends (balance).
• Make webhook handlers idempotent — retries deliver duplicates by design.
