# Text2reach SMS Messaging API

Text2reach SMS messaging API for sending SMS messages, checking delivery status, managing credits, and PIN verification. The API exposes 7 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically send sms, get message delivery status. Covers 7 operations with apiKey authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.

## Capabilities

- Send SMS
- Get message delivery status
- Cancel SMS
- Verify PIN code
- Monitor Text2reach SMS Messaging API operational status and events

## Use cases

### Communications Operations

Use the Text2reach SMS Messaging API to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 7 endpoints covering core functionality including send sms, get message delivery status, get extended delivery report.

Example prompt: Call GET `/sms/send` to send sms

### Automated Account Management

Automate account operations by combining multiple Text2reach SMS Messaging API endpoints. Agents can get message delivery status and then get extended delivery report in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET `/sms/status` to get message delivery status, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Text2reach SMS Messaging API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'send sms', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Key endpoints

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Text2reach SMS Messaging API by hand means handling its api_key query-parameter auth against the api.text2reach.com host and coding each send, status, and pricing call yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Text2reach SMS Messaging API from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Text2reach carries the destination and message in query parameters rather than a resource id in the URL path, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as sending an SMS or checking delivery status. You choose the operations it may call, so cancelling a message is not included unless you add it.
- **Credential handling:** Your Text2reach API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'send an SMS' or 'check message delivery status', and Jentic returns the matching Text2reach SMS Messaging API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Text2reach SMS Messaging API use?

The Text2reach SMS Messaging API uses an API key passed in the `api_key` query. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I send sms with the Text2reach SMS Messaging API?

Yes. Use the GET `/sms/send` endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Text2reach SMS Messaging API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I send sms through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'send sms'. Jentic returns the matching Text2reach SMS Messaging API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the Text2reach SMS Messaging API have?

The Text2reach SMS Messaging API exposes 7 endpoints covering account, pin verification, sms operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Text2reach SMS Messaging API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, you decide which of the API's operations the agent may call, so you can grant only sending an SMS (GET `/sms/send`) and checking delivery status (GET `/sms/status`) while withholding the rest. Text2reach passes the destination number and message in query parameters rather than a path resource id, so scoping is done at the operation level: cancelling a message (GET `/sms/cancel`) is not available to the agent unless you add it. Your API key is held encrypted by your own instance and injected only for the operations you have allowed.
