Generating an API key

Step 2: You’ll find two options: “Show API” and “+ Generate API” 

Step 3: Click on “+ Generate API” to generate the API key. 

Step 4: A pop-up window will appear, prompting you to provide various details. – Start by selecting the “Account type” from the dropdown menu. 

Step 5: Check the box next to “Scrub DND” if you wish to exclude DND numbers when sending SMS via API. 

Step 6: Optionally, enter a Description for the API key for reference purposes.

Step 7: If you do not wish to pass the template ID and entity ID parameter in the API request and you prefer to auto-match the SMS content with the template uploaded on your Aura account, click on  “Match Template”.

Once it’s clicked, write an email to  support@onextel.com enabling this feature from the backend with the username and Api key of your account.
