Notifyre SMS API Authentication

How to authenticate Notifyre SMS API requests: one Bearer API key plus a connectionId. MindCloud stores your API key securely — set it once, never resend it.

Every Notifyre SMS API request through MindCloud needs two things: a MindCloud API Key and a connectionId for your Notifyre SMS account. This page covers both, plus exactly how to send them, so you do not need to visit any other page to get authenticated.

Steps to authenticate

  1. Create a MindCloud account at app.mindcloud.co if you do not already have one.
  2. Generate a MindCloud API Key in API Keys. This is the Bearer token you send on every request. Keep it on your server.
  3. Create a Notifyre SMS connection in Connections. Notifyre SMS uses an API key. You generate the key in your Notifyre SMS account, then paste it in when you create the connection — MindCloud stores it securely and never returns it in a response.
  4. Copy the connection’s connectionId — you will send it on every request alongside your MindCloud API Key.

How requests are authenticated

Authentication has two layers. Your MindCloud API Key authenticates the request to MindCloud, sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. The connectionId selects the connected Notifyre SMS account that should run the action. MindCloud stores and refreshes the Notifyre SMS credentials behind that connection, so you never send provider tokens with your requests.

Pass connectionId in the query string for GET and DELETE actions, and in the JSON body for POST, PUT, and PATCH actions.

For example, calling Download MMS Reply with an Notifyre SMS connection looks like this:

curl --request POST \
  --url "https://connect.mindcloud.co/v2/universal/apps/notifyreSMS/actions/download-mms-reply/run" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $MINDCLOUD_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
  "connectionId": "$CONNECTION_ID",
  "arguments": {}
}'

The Authorization: Bearer <your MindCloud API Key> header authenticates you to MindCloud; the connectionId tells MindCloud which Notifyre SMS account to run the action against. Missing or invalid Authorization returns 401, and a missing or mismatched connectionId returns 400.

Connect your Notifyre API token

You need a Notifyre account with an API token that has the permissions required for the SMS actions you plan to run.

  1. Sign in to Notifyre

    Open the Notifyre dashboard and sign in with the account that owns the SMS resources you want to access.

  2. Open the API token guide

    Follow Notifyre's API token instructions so you generate or locate the token for this integration.

    Support → Account Management → How to create an API token
  3. Create or copy the API token

    In Notifyre, open Developer, create a new token if needed, and copy the token value. If you need send or receive permissions for testing, do not use the Developer role.

  4. Paste the token into MindCloud

    Paste the Notifyre API token into the MindCloud connection field for the Notifyre SMS API Key credential and save the connection.

Keep your key safe

Keep your MindCloud API Key on your server; do not ship it in browser code, mobile apps, public repositories, or logs. Anyone with the key can call the Universal API as your MindCloud account, across every connection you have created.
