New Media Endpoints Security
A new security enhancement for media endpoints to our Conversations API is available for versions 2 and 3.
Now, the media endpoints can be completely secured, with credentials settings of type basic (username & password) and oAuth2 (client_credentials flow) for downloading media files from your premise.
We support 2 variants for this:
curl --location --request PUT 'https://api.tyntec.com/conversations/v3/configurations/mediaCredentials' \ --header 'apikey: <key> \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-raw '{ "type": "oauth2", "oauth2": { "clientId": "your client id", "clientSecret": "your client secret", "url": "https://your.authentication.server.com" } }'
ℹ️ Need more information? The request is stored on the postman file in our GitHub repository.
{ "from" : "{{whatsAppBusinessNumber}}", "to" : "{{receiverPhoneNumber}}", "channel" : "whatsapp", "content" : { "contentType" : "text", "text" : "test message 2", "renderUrlPreview" : true, } }
ℹ️ This feature is available for Conversations API version 3.

Flexible rollout of changes on MessageStatus and Inbound Messages
You can now apply a transformation model on MessageStatus updates and inbound messages depending on the chosen version of a callback. This allows tyntec to create new events and update the API structure without disruption to existing clients. You can edit such changes at your own pace, making it a safer process for your company.

The IP restriction API helps you manage your account and allowlist your IPs and subnets for higher security when using your tyntec API key.
Account Keys
The keys API helps you manage your account API keys. You can add a secondary key to your account and delete the old one. With this mechanism, you can safely rotate a key on runtime to keep your account safe.
