API Host URL

Sever API Host: https://api.enablex.io/voice/

Every major version release of Voice API will have a sub-directory named after major version number. This is known as Base URL for a Server API Version, e.g.

Version Base URL: https://api.enablex.io/voice/v1/

All Server API Routes are mapped to the Version Base URL, e.g.

Call Route URL: https://api.enablex.io/voice/v1/call

The Voice API uses HTTP Basic Authentication mechanism to authenticate API calls. Each API call is validated via the authentication header.

The following Information is used as credentials to access Voice API for your Application in the HTTP basic authentication header in the API call request

  • Application ID or APP_ID as username
  • Application Key or APP_KEY as Password
POST https://api.enablex.io/voice/v1/call
Authorization: Basic XXXXXX    
Content-Type: application/json

The Authorization header in the above example contains a value XXXXX which is a base64 encoded string of the APP_ID:APP_KEY.

How to get APP_ID & APP_KEY

You must include Voice Service in the Project. Once your Project is created, you will receive an email with the Project’s Access Credentials, viz. APP_ID and APP_KEY.
