Send a Viber campaign

Viber Campaigns help you to attract and communicate with customers through our Viber channel at a competitive cost.
Messages can be personal, informative, transactional, or promotional, and support text, images, buttons, and links.

In order to use Viber Campaign Service, you must first request for activation. Fill out the Viber Application Form and one of our representatives will get back to you as soon as possible to give you all the necessary information about the activation process.

You can submit the Viber Application Form here

The following example shows how easy is to send a Viber campaign using Routee API.

https://connect.routee.net/viber/campaign

Your Header should contain authorization and content type:

KEY	VALUE
Authorization:	Bearer {access_token}
Content-Type:	application/json

Request body contains the viber message (body), the senderInfoTrackingId (from), the recipient (to), the campaign name and the ttl.

The "senderInfoTrackingId" is unique and can be retrieved from Routee Platform. The Applications page contains all the information you need.

An example request is shown below:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://connect.routee.net/viber/campaign \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer 12dc9ff4-7df4-4786-8e7a-a46d317687f4' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --header 'Expect:' \
  --data '{
  	"senderInfoTrackingId": "YourRegisteredSenderId",
    "to": ["+3069xxxxxxxx"],
    "campaignName": "name of campaign",
 		"body": {
   		"text": "This is a viber message!",
   		"imageURL": "http://via.placeholder.com/400x400",
   		"action": {
   	  		"targetUrl": "http://via.placeholder.com/400x400",
   	  		"caption": "Go"
   		}
 		},
 		"ttl": 5000,
    "callbackUrl": "http://www.YOURSERVER.COM/callback",
    "inboundUrl": "http://www.YOURSERVER.COM/inbound-messages"
    }'
