Account Setup

A portal account must be created before you can access the API.

The portal is a white labelled web application providing access to your inbound telephony services, live statistics, number management, account management and settings etc.

Your service provider can create a portal account and set up your access, grant account permissions and allocate your inbound service numbers etc.

If you are a Service Provider with access to the API you will have been provided access to both the live and test platforms.

The development platform should be used as a development/test area. All development code should be tested against the development platform before pointing this to the live platform. Please see the development guidelines section 3.18 for more information.

Live portal account URL:-

https://XXXX.advancedservicesportal.com

Development portal account URL:-

https://XXXX.lab-advancedservicesportal.com

XXXX = Account Name.

You will be provided with a username and password for each account. The username and password can be used to access the portals and can also be used with the API security methods to retrieve your security token.

The security token must be supplied to all secured web API methods. You will have a different token for the development and live platforms.

You can also use the development username and password to access the test harness web application. See section 3.18.1 for more details.

For further details please contact your service provider.
