Send Expiring Messages via API

Overview

This tutorial teaches developers how to create messages with expiration times using the Resayil API.

Key Concept

According to the documentation, "Expiration time only affects messages that are in the queue and, therefore, that have not been sent yet."

Primary Use Case

The feature is particularly valuable for time-sensitive content. The article provides this example: sending one-time verification passwords that are only valid for limited periods. If a customer receives a verification code after its validity window closes, the message becomes useless.

How It Works

The system automatically removes queued messages if they exceed a specified time threshold before delivery. This prevents recipients from receiving outdated information.

Technical Implementation

Developers can utilize any programming language capable of making HTTPS requests to send expiring messages via the API. The platform provides a live API tester with ready-made code examples in multiple programming languages.
