• Sign up for a free MessageBird account

• Run composer install.

{
    "require": {
        "messagebird/php-rest-api": "1.3.x"

####Manual installation

When you do not use Composer. You can git checkout or download this repository and include the MessageBird API client manually.

We have put some self-explanatory examples in the examples directory, but here is a quick breakdown on how it works. First, you need to set up a MessageBird\Client. Be sure to replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with something real.

require 'autoload.php';

$MessageBird = new \MessageBird\Client('YOUR_ACCESS_KEY');

That's easy enough. Now we can query the server for information. Lets use getting your balance overview as an example:

// Get your balance
$Balance = $MessageBird->balance->read();
