Vonage Code Snippets for Python

The purpose of these Code Snippets is to provide simple examples focused on one goal. For example, sending an SMS, creating a Vonage Video API session, handling an incoming webhook, or making a Text-to-Speech call.

Setup

These code samples are meant to be embedded into pages on https://developer.vonage.com/. Developers are free to use these code snippets as a reference, but these may require changes to be worked into your specific application. We recommend checking out the Vonage Developer Website, which displays these code snippets in a more copy/paste fashion.

To use the examples, you will first need a Vonage account. Then rename the .env.dist file to .env and set the values as required.

For some of the examples you will need to buy a number.

Running the Examples

If you would like to run these examples yourself, you will need to do the following:

All the examples run from a Flask server.

Install any dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run the server:

python server.py

Navigate to the appropriate route defined in server.py to execute the example.

Request an Example

Please raise an issue to request an example that isn't present within the quickstart. Pull requests will be gratefully received.
