# Zipwhip

Zipwhip's API relies on a sessionKey to perform all actions. This is a GUID representation of an authenticated user.
>Tip: SessionKeys do not expire, they can be obtained once and then used for all future actions.

A sessionKey is obtained from perfomring a `user/login` webcall for the account.

### It all begins with user/login

$ curl -i https://api.zipwhip.com/user/login \
	-d username=[phone number] \
	-d password=[account password]

{
  "success":true,
  "response":"3d0f1dde-aaff-4ce8-b61a-af212a860abc:123456789"
}

**I think we will have a couple issues related to autoscaling.
Eache instance will make request for getting session key, but I am not sure that previous key won't be canceled. To be sure we need to get credentials for having posibility two test webhooks**

>In this case the `response` is the sessionKey for the account.

Next you'll want to send a message. To do so, we will use the the sessionKey retrieved from `user/login`.

$ curl -i https://api.zipwhip.com/message/send \
	-d session=3d0f1dde-aaff-4ce8-b61a-af212a860abc:123456789
	-d --data-rulencode contacts='[phone]'
	-d --data-urlencode body='Hello World, from Zipwhip!'

{
  "response": {
    "fingerprint": "4236521183",
    "root": "327559093363723008",
    "tokens": [
      {
        "contact": 1989548603,
        "device": 309626613,
        "fingerprint": "42336654183",
        "message": "327545678963723008"
      }
    ]
  },
  "success": true
}

>`message` is the ID of the unique this can be used in `message/get`, `message/read`, `message/delete`
