Why do I need to sign up for a Msgme Developer account?
In order to access the Msgme API you will need to authenticate using an access key that we generate for each Developer account. Access keys are then granted permission to specific Msgme accounts only. Contact Msgme Support for assistance or additional information.
Why are responses coming back with 400 status, not authorized?
Chances are the token has expired. Keep in mind, the tokens are valid for 24 hours only.
In the send_keyword_content method, what are the terms?
AT&T requires acknowledgement of the Terms & Conditions of the mobile content. If the user accepts, set the terms parameter to true.
Which methods should be used to build a subscription widget?
Two methods must be used, first authentication_api must be used to retrieve a token, then use the add_subscriber method to add the subscriber. Be sure to include the Keyword ID and the short code the keyword belongs to.
Which methods should be used to build an unsubscribe feature on a web page or a widget?
Unsubscribe requires three methods, first authentication_api needs to retrieve a token, then list_subscriptions can fetch subscription keywords for a msidn. Finally, the user can select which keywords to unsubscribe to and be sent via the unsubscribe subscriber.
How can the marketer that uses Msgme know the custom fields set up for a keyword.
Custom meta-data fields can only be set up using the method, define_custom_fields. It is the responsibility of the developer to communicate with the marketer to decide which custom fields should be set up per keyword. The marketer will then see the meta fields in the filters menu on the subscribers page for that keyword.
Do the Msgme APIs support HTTPS?
Only "authenticate_api" supports HTTPS. Please note, SSL extends only between the client and Waterfall. We do not use SSL to connect with mBlox (our aggregator) nor does mBlox with the carriers.
