Sendblue iMessage & SMS FAQs

Question 1

Do I need a separate API client to use this skill?

Accepted Answer

No, this skill utilizes the @sendblue/cli npm package, which handles account setup and messaging directly without requiring a separate API client or webhook server.

Question 2

Can I receive messages with the Sendblue CLI?

Accepted Answer

You can list recent inbound messages using the 'messages' command, though real-time inbound handling via webhooks is better suited for the Sendblue API skill.

Question 3

Why are my outbound messages failing on the free plan?

Accepted Answer

On Sendblue's free plan, a contact must send a message to your provisioned number first to verify the connection before you can send outbound messages to them.

Question 4

What phone number format is required?

Accepted Answer

All phone numbers must follow the E.164 format, which includes a plus sign followed by the country code and digits (e.g., +15551234567).

Question 5

How are my Sendblue credentials stored?

Accepted Answer

Credentials are stored locally at ~/.sendblue/credentials.json with 600 file permissions, ensuring they are only accessible to the OS user who initiated the setup.
