Overview

divergent Connect is our communication platform, with a powerful API for sending and receiving messages, delivery receipts, webhooks, templating and link shortening.

These docs cover everything you need to send messages with Connect, from writing a good SMS to building and testing a complete integration.

Using PureSMS?

PureSMS is built on Connect, so these docs are for you too. Your PureSMS workspace uses the same API, so everything in the SMS section applies to you.

PureSMS is SMS only, so anything relating to other channels is not available in PureSMS.
