Minimal client over the A2P Messaging HTTP endpoints. Anything beyond the methods below is a plain REST call — the [Reference](/developers/transactional-api/http/reference) covers the whole surface.

## Installation

### Via pip

```bash
pip install instasent
```

### From source

```bash
python setup.py install
```

## Send an SMS

```python
import os
import instasent

client = instasent.Client(os.environ["INSTASENT_TOKEN"])
response = client.send_sms("My company", "+34666666666", "test message")

print(response["response_code"])
print(response["response_body"])
```

## Available methods

```python
client.send_sms(sender, to, text)
client.get_sms(page, per_page)
client.get_sms_by_id(message_id)
```
