Upgrade to Flowroute Messaging API v2.1

All new Flowroute customers will be interacting with the Messaging v2.1 by default.

For existing customers who are using the Messaging API v2, opting into v2.1 is fairly straightforward. If you're wondering or hesitating, here are some good reasons to upgrade to v2.1:

• Ability to send and receive MMS messages    

• Embedded delivery receipt information for outbound SMS    

• Ability to configure separate callback URLs for SMS and MMS    

• Ability to send compact and JSON API requests    

To get started with the upgrade

1. Log in to your Flowroute account.

2. Visit Preferences > API Control to update your SMS or MMS settings.

3. Select v2.1 in the SMS Format drop-down list and click Save.

Reverting to v2 is currently not an option.  

While you can still hit any of the v2 messages endpoint, your Message Detail Records (MDRs) will be rendered in the v2.1 format with embedded delivery receipt information for every outbound SMS that you send.
