FAQs

An SMS API for developers provides functions, methods, and endpoints to interact with an SMS gateway. Developers can request the API to send messages, retrieve delivery reports, manage contacts, and perform other SMS-related operations. The API handles the processing and delivery of the messages, ensuring seamless communication between the application and the recipients.

An SMS API can send transactional messages, such as order confirmations, appointment reminders, and account notifications. Developers can integrate the API into their systems to trigger automated messages based on specific events or conditions, ensuring timely and relevant customer communication.

When a user initiates the authentication process the application or system generates a unique OTP or verification code. The API then sends this code to the user's generated mobile number via SMS. The user receives the SMS and enters the code into the application or system, which verifies its correctness. If the code matches, the user is granted access or completes the authentication process successfully. This is how SMS authentication API works.
