Sample Code

This sample code makes a request to authenticate an account using PHP, but any language capable of integrating with a REST API works for this type of request:

<?php
// authentication and filter settings
$login = '<your_temporary_login>';
$password = '<your_temporary_password>';
$start = '<start_date>';
$end = '<end_date>';
$period = '<selected_period>';
$phone = '<selected_phone_number>';

// build the URL
$url = 'https://voicetrends.plumvoice.com/api/volume/'.$start.'/'.$end.'/'.$period.'/'.$phone;

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $login.':'.$password);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("Accept: application/json"));
$result = curl_exec($ch);
$http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
curl_close($ch);
var_dump($result);
var_dump($http_code);
