VIBER API
DecisionTelecom Viber API allows you to send and receive Viber business messages to and from any country in the world via API. Each message is identified by a unique random ID, so users can always check the status of a message using given endpoint.
The Viber API uses HTTPS with access key that is used as the API authorization. Request and response payloads are formatted as JSON using UTF-8 encoding.
API Authorization - Base64 access key.
Please contact your account manager to get an API key.
$userHashKey = 'User Hash Key provided by your account manager';
$ch = curl_init('https://web.it-decision.com/v1/api/send-viber');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$userHashKey");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($requestParams)); //
$requestParams - raquest array with correct data
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json'));
$result = curl_exec($ch);
