How to start with LINK Mobility

LINK Mobility is a publicly traded communications platform based in Oslo, Norway. This guide takes you from zero to a delivered SMSin about five minutes — no sales call required (contact their team to activate an account).

Before you start

A LINK Mobility account — sign up here.
Your API credentials from the dashboard.
A phone number capable of receiving SMSs for testing.

Step 1 — Create your account

Sign up. Head to www.linkmobility.com and create an account. Activation may require a short call with their team.
Grab your keys. Open the dashboard and copy your credentials. LINK Mobility uses HTTP Basic Authentication using the username and password provided by LINK Mobility Support (Authorization: Basic header); each account is assigned a regional base URL such as n-eu/c-eu/s-eu.linkmobility.io, and requests are POSTed to /sms/send. The newer MyLINK/XMS API also supports OAuth2 Bearer tokens..

Step 2 — Send your first SMS

The fastest path is a single API call. Drop in your credentials and a destination number, then run this from your terminal:

curl -X POST https://n-eu.linkmobility.io/sms/send \
  -u "USERNAME:PASSWORD" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "source": "LINK",
    "destination": "+4799999999",
    "userData": "Hello world",
    "platformId": "0",
    "platformPartnerId": "0",
    "useDeliveryReport": false
  }'

The request hits https://n-eu.linkmobility.io/sms/send. A 2xx response means LINK Mobilityhas accepted your message for delivery — you should see it arrive within seconds.

Step 3 — Go native with an SDK
