Quickstart
Step 1: Create an Account
Sign up at orbit.devotel.io/signup. The
dashboard will route you to your locale-preferred URL automatically. No
credit card required — verify, claim your $5 trial credit, and get
moving.
Step 2: Get Your API Key
Navigate to Settings > API Keys and create a new key. Live keys are
prefixed with dv_live_sk_; test keys with dv_test_sk_. Keep these
server-side only.
Step 3: Send Your First Message
The same /messages/<channel> endpoint shape works across SMS,
WhatsApp, Email, RCS, and Voice — pick the channel you’re integrating
first.
SMS
curl -X POST https://orbit-api.devotel.io/api/v1/messages/sms \
-H "X-API-Key: $ORBIT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"to": "+14155552671",
"from": "+14155551234",
"body": "Hello from Orbit!"
}'
WhatsApp
curl -X POST https://orbit-api.devotel.io/api/v1/messages/whatsapp \
-H "X-API-Key: $ORBIT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"to": "+14155552671",
"type": "template",
"template": {
"name": "hello_world",
"language": "en"
}
}'
Email
curl -X POST https://orbit-api.devotel.io/api/v1/messages/email \
-H "X-API-Key: $ORBIT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"to": "user@example.com",
"from": "hello@yourdomain.com",
"subject": "Welcome",
"html": "<h1>Welcome to Acme</h1>"
}'
Voice
curl -X POST https://orbit-api.devotel.io/api/v1/voice/calls \
-H "X-API-Key: $ORBIT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"to": "+14155552671",
"from": "+14155551234",
"agent_id": "agent_support_bot"
}'
Replace $ORBIT_API_KEY with the key from Step 2 (or export it in
your shell). Don’t paste your key directly into shared snippets.
Step 4: Check the Response
