The MessageMedia Webhooks allows you to subscribe to one or several events and when one of those events is triggered, an HTTP request is sent to the URL of your choice along with the message or payload. In simpler terms, it allows applications to "speak" to one another and get notified automatically when something new happens.
Authentication is done via API keys. Sign up at https://developers.messagemedia.com/register/ to get your API keys.
Requests are authenticated using HTTP Basic Auth or HMAC. Provide your API key as the auth_user_name and API secret as the auth_password.
Our API returns standard HTTP success or error status codes. For errors, we will also include extra information about what went wrong encoded in the response as JSON. The most common status codes are listed below.
Code | Title | Description |
---|---|---|
400 | Invalid Request | The request was invalid |
401 | Unauthorized | Your API credentials are invalid |
403 | Disabled feature | Feature not enabled |
404 | Not Found | The resource does not exist |
50X | Internal Server Error | An error occurred with our API |

Run the following command to install the SDK via pip:
pip install messagemedia-webhooks-sdk
It's easy to get started. Simply enter the API Key and secret you obtained from the MessageMedia Developers Portal into the code snippet below.
from message_media_webhooks.message_media_webhooks_client import MessageMediaWebhooksClient
from message_media_webhooks.models.create_webhook_request import CreateWebhookRequest
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication
client = MessageMediaWebhooksClient(basic_auth_user_name, basic_auth_password)
webhooks_controller = client.webhooks
body = CreateWebhookRequest("http://webhook.com", "POST", "JSON", None, ["ENROUTE_DR"], "{\"id\":\"$mtId\",\"status\":\"$statusCode\"}")
result = webhooks_controller.create_webhook(body)
from message_media_webhooks.message_media_webhooks_client import MessageMediaWebhooksClient
from message_media_webhooks.models.create_webhook_request import CreateWebhookRequest
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication
client = MessageMediaWebhooksClient(basic_auth_user_name, basic_auth_password)
webhooks_controller = client.webhooks
page = 0
page_size = 0
result = webhooks_controller.retrieve_webhook(page, page_size)
You can get a webhook ID by looking at the id
of each webhook created from the response of the above example.
from message_media_webhooks.message_media_webhooks_client import MessageMediaWebhooksClient
import json
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication
client = MessageMediaWebhooksClient(basic_auth_user_name, basic_auth_password)
webhooks_controller = client.webhooks
webhook_id = "WEBHOOK_ID"
body_value = "{\"url\": \"https://myurl.com\",\"method\": \"POST\", \"encoding\": \"FORM_ENCODED\", \"events\": [\"ENROUTE_DR\"],\"template\": \"{\\\"id\\\":\\\"$mtId\\\", \\\"status\\\":\\\"$statusCode\\\"}\" }"
body = json.loads(body_value)
result = webhooks_controller.update_webhook(webhook_id, body)
You can get a webhook ID by looking at the id
of each webhook created from the response of the retrieve webhooks example.
from message_media_webhooks.message_media_webhooks_client import MessageMediaWebhooksClient
from message_media_webhooks.models.create_webhook_request import CreateWebhookRequest
basic_auth_user_name = 'API_KEY' # The username to use with basic authentication
basic_auth_password = 'API_SECRET' # The password to use with basic authentication
client = MessageMediaWebhooksClient(basic_auth_user_name, basic_auth_password)
webhooks_controller = client.webhooks
body = CreateWebhookRequest("http://webhook.com", "POST", "JSON", None, ["ENROUTE_DR"], "{\"id\":\"$mtId\",\"status\":\"$statusCode\"}")
result = webhooks_controller.create_webhook(body)
