GETTING STARTED
Messaging API getting started
Get access, authenticate requests, and send your first message.
Get access
Sign in with a registered ChatX account and create a sandbox immediately. Administrator approval promotes it to live customer messaging.
Authenticate requests
Create a developer app in the Business console, choose its category scopes, and save the API token shown at creation. Send that token as a Bearer token from your backend.
Send a message
Pick a category - marketing, authentication, or utility - then send its request shape to the recipient's phone number. The token must include the matching category scope, and the URL account ID must be the account that owns the developer app.
Message types
Messages are either plain text, or structured content built from a header, body, footer, and buttons or a carousel - the exact shape depends on the category.
See the message types guide for details on each category's shape, or the full API reference for every endpoint, request, and response.
