Hello Developers!

This tutorial is in order to get your requests using the version 1.0 of Sandbox BotDoc API. In order to use this version, you have to put “v1” on the API’s endpoint.

To a better understanding about the versioning, please go to api.botdoc.io/documentation/#versioning
and to a better understanding about the Sandbox, please go to api.botdoc.io/documentation/#sandbox-platform

1. Getting your requests:

In order to get a list of your requests you have to make a request to:
https://sandboxapi.botdoc.io/v1/auth/request/ as GET and you can use 2 parameters:
page to return the result set based on this page number (starting from 1, not 0), and page_size that is the number of results per page.
If you don’t pass any parameter, page‘s default is 1 and page_size‘s default is 10.

If you send a request like this: https://api.botdoc.io/v1/request/?page=2&page_size=5 (always remember sending token on header)
The response will look like the example below:

{
	"links": {
		"previous": "https://api.botdoc.io/v1/request/?page_size=5",
		"next": "https://api.botdoc.io/v1/request/?page=3&page_size=5"
	},
	"total_pages": 4,
	"count": 18,
	"results": [{
			"id": 5457,
			"identifier": "820aeeb52ad0707xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
			...
		},
		...{
			"id": 5459,
			"identifier": "b63202468ca4cb029fxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxb",
			...
		}
	]
}

The links is an array of strings, that always contains previous and next.
The previous is the URL to request the previous page, returns null when it’s the first page.
The next is the URL to request the next page, returns null when it’s the last page.
The total_pages returns the total of pages.
The count returns the total requests
and the results return an array of requests.

2. Getting a specific request:

In order to get a specific request you have to make a request to:
https://sandboxapi.botdoc.io/v1/auth/request/{request-id} as GET 

and the response will look like the example below:

{
	"id": 4578,
	"identifier": "c0ea665eefe04exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
	"message": "a nice message here",
	"receiver_message": "the response message here",

	"contact_notification_send": [],
