MessageMedia Webhooks Ruby SDK

The MessageMedia Webhooks allows you to subscribe to one or several events and when one of those events is triggered, an HTTP request is sent to the URL of your choice along with the message or payload. In simpler terms, it allows applications to "speak" to one another and get notified automatically when something new happens.

:closed_lock_with_key: Authentication

Authentication is done via API keys. Sign up at https://developers.messagemedia.com/register/ to get your API keys.

Requests are authenticated using HTTP Basic Auth or HMAC. Provide your API key as the auth_user_name and API secret as the auth_password.

:interrobang: Errors

Our API returns standard HTTP success or error status codes. For errors, we will also include extra information about what went wrong encoded in the response as JSON. The most common status codes are listed below.

HTTP Status Codes

Code	Title	Description
400	Invalid Request	The request was invalid
401	Unauthorized	Your API credentials are invalid
403	Disabled feature	Feature not enabled
404	Not Found	The resource does not exist
50X	Internal Server Error	An error occurred with our API

:star: Installation

Run the following command to install the SDK via RubyGems:

gem install messagemedia-webhooks-sdk

:clapper: Get Started

It's easy to get started. Simply enter the API Key and secret you obtained from the MessageMedia Developers Portal into the code snippet below.

Create a webhook

require 'message_media_webhooks'
require 'pp'

# Configuration parameters and credentials
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication

client = MessageMediaWebhooks::MessageMediaWebhooksClient.new(
  basic_auth_user_name: basic_auth_user_name,
  basic_auth_password: basic_auth_password
)

webhooks_controller = client.webhooks

body = MessageMediaWebhooks::CreateWebhookRequest.new("http://webhook2.com",
  "POST",
  "JSON",
  nil,
  ["ENROUTE_DR"],
  "{\"id\":\"$mtId\",\"status\":\"$statusCode\"}"
)

result = webhooks_controller.create_webhook(body)
pp result

Retrieve all webhooks

require 'message_media_webhooks'
require 'pp'

# Configuration parameters and credentials
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication

client = MessageMediaWebhooks::MessageMediaWebhooksClient.new(
  basic_auth_user_name: basic_auth_user_name,
  basic_auth_password: basic_auth_password
)

webhooks_controller = client.webhooks

page = 0
page_size = 0

result = webhooks_controller.retrieve_webhook(page, page_size)
pp result

Update a webhook

You can get a webhook ID by looking at the id of each webhook created from the response of the above example.

require 'message_media_webhooks'
require 'pp'

# Configuration parameters and credentials
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication

client = MessageMediaWebhooks::MessageMediaWebhooksClient.new(
  basic_auth_user_name: basic_auth_user_name,
  basic_auth_password: basic_auth_password
)

webhooks_controller = client.webhooks

webhook_id = "WEBHOOK_ID"

body_value = "{
  \"url\": \"https://myurl.com\",        
  \"method\": \"POST\",        
  \"encoding\": \"FORM_ENCODED\",        
  \"events\": [\"ENROUTE_DR\"],        
  \"template\": \"{\\\"id\\\":\\\"$mtId\\\", \\\"status\\\":\\\"$statusCode\\\"}\"    
}";

body = JSON.parse(body_value);

result = webhooks_controller.update_webhook(webhook_id, body)
pp result

Delete a webhook

You can get a webhook ID by looking at the id of each webhook created from the response of the retrieve webhooks example.

require 'message_media_webhooks'
require 'pp'

# Configuration parameters and credentials
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication

client = MessageMediaWebhooks::MessageMediaWebhooksClient.new(
  basic_auth_user_name: basic_auth_user_name,
  basic_auth_password: basic_auth_password
)

webhooks_controller = client.webhooks

webhook_id = "WEBHOOK_ID"

webhooks_controller.delete_webhook(webhook_id)
pp result
