Creating an API User

Before you can make API calls, you need to create an API user:

  1. Log in to the HelloSMS Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to the Account (“Konto”) section of the dashboard and click API.
  3. Click Add API User (“Lägg till en API-användare”).
  4. Enter a name for the API user which is used in the system to show who has sent an SMS, for example, and click Add (“Lägg till”).
  5. Save your credentials securely, you'll need them for all API requests.
Credentials are only shown once

Your API password will only be shown once when created.

Example of generating an user and receiving the API key

Make sure to save them in a secure location, as you won't be able to retrieve them again later. If you lose your credentials, you'll need to create a new API user to receive a new API password.
