Getting started

Prequisites

Python 3.8 or later is required to use this package.
You need an Azure subscription to use this package.
An existing Communication Messages instance.

Key concepts

Azure Communication Services enables you to send and receive WhatsApp messages using the Azure Communication Services Messages SDK. It can be used to send out messages like appointment reminders, shipping updates, two-factor authentication, and other notification scenarios.

Installating the package

python -m pip install azure-communication-messages

Create with an Azure Active Directory Credential

To use an Azure Active Directory (AAD) token credential, provide an instance of the desired credential type obtained from the azure-identity library.

To authenticate with AAD, you must first pip install azure-identity

After setup, you can choose which type of credential from azure.identity to use. As an example, DefaultAzureCredential can be used to authenticate the client:

Set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the AAD application as environment variables: AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET

Use the returned token credential to authenticate the client:

>>> from azure.communication.messages import NotificationMessagesClient
>>> from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
>>> client = NotificationMessagesClient(endpoint='<endpoint>', credential=DefaultAzureCredential())

Examples

>>> from azure.communication.messages import NotificationMessagesClient
>>> from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
>>> from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError

>>> client = NotificationMessagesClient(endpoint='<endpoint>', credential=DefaultAzureCredential())
>>> try:
        # write test code here
    except HttpResponseError as e:
        print('service responds error: {}'.format(e.response.json()))
