End Points
The following endpoints (URLs) are available for the Enterprise Communications API for HTTP POSTing to.
Which method to use?
Use the batch submission if you have more than one message to send at a time, otherwise use the single submission.
We will only accept connections using TLS 1.1 or above
For security reasons we do not accept SSL connections negotiated using TLS 1.0 anymore. Almost all OS's support TLS 1.1 or higher, and we recommend using TLS 1.2 if supported. This is usually done automatically for you, but on versions of .Net prior to 4.6 TLS 1.2 is supported but is not the default protocol, and needs to be set explicitly.
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = (SecurityProtocolType)3072 | (SecurityProtocolType)768;See this article for more information.
Single Message Submission
The endpoint for the web service is: https://api.comapi.com/apispaces/apiSpaceId/messages

},
"rules": [

]
}
You can find more details about the end point here, but please read this section first so that you are familiar with how the API works.
Batch Message Submission
The endpoint for the web service is: https://api.comapi.com/apispaces/apiSpaceId/messages/batch
Send a batch of message request objects using a JSON array e.g.

Content-Type: application/json
Security
Secure communications
The Enterprise Communications API is only accessible via secure communications using 2048 bit TLS encryption.
Granular authorisation
The authorisation to invoke methods on the API is provided by claims in JWT access tokens that can be created by sufficiently privileged users in the Portal. Tokens may be revoked at any time, and can be assigned permissions individually to allow least privilege best practices to be easily implemented.
See our Quick Start guide for more details on how to setup a security token.
Authorising web service calls
To use your access token to authorise calls to our web services you should ensure that your token is included in the Authorization HTTP header as a Bearer for example:
