Flowroute Python Library v3
The Flowroute Python library v3 provides methods for interacting with Numbers v2 and Messages v2.1 of the Flowroute API.
Topics
Requirements
- Flowroute API credentials
- Python:
Python 2 >=2.7.9
orPython 3 >=3.4
Installation
-
First, start a shell session and clone the Python library:

Depending on your pip
permissions, you may be required to preface each pip
command with sudo
.
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Usage
In Flowroute's approach to building the Python library v3, HTTP requests are handled by controllers named after the API resources they represent: Numbers, Routes, E911s, CNAMs, and Messages. These controllers contain the methods used to perform messaging, number management, route management, E911 address management, and CNAM record management within the Python library.
Controllers
NumbersController
Contains all of the methods necessary to search through Flowroute's phone number inventory, purchase a phone number, and review details of your account phone numbers.
- list_available_area_codes() - Returns a list of all Numbering Plan Area (NPA) codes containing purchasable phone numbers. All request parameters are optional. If you don't specify a limit, results are limited to the first 10 items.
- list_available_exchange_codes() - Returns a list of all Central Office (exchange) codes containing purchasable phone numbers. All request parameters are optional.
- search_for_purchasable_phone_numbers() - Searches for purchasable phone numbers by state or rate center, or by your specified search value.
- purchase_a_phone_number(purchasable_number) - Lets you purchase a phone number from available Flowroute inventory.
- list_account_phone_numbers() - Returns a list of all phone numbers currently on your Flowroute account.
- list_phone_number_details(number_id) - Returns details on a specific phone number associated with your account, including primary voice route, and failover voice route if previously configured.
RoutesController
Contains the methods required to create new inbound routes, view all of your account routes, and update primary and failover voice routes for your phone numbers.
- create_an_inbound_route(route_body) - Creates a new inbound route which can then be assigned as either a primary or a failover voice route for a phone number on your account.
- list_inbound_routes() - Returns a list of your inbound routes. From the list, you can then select routes to use as the primary and failover voice routes for phone numbers on your account.
- update_primary_voice_route(number_id, route_body) - Updates the primary voice route for a phone number. You must create the route first via the
create_an_inbound_route(routebody)
method. - update_failover_voice_route(number_id, route_body) - Updates the failover voice route for a phone number. You must create the route first via the
create_an_inbound_route(routebody)
method.
MessagesController
Contains the methods required to send an MMS or SMS, and review a specific Message Detail Record (MDR) or a set of messages.
- send_a_message(message_body) - Sends an SMS or MMS from a Flowroute long code or toll-free phone number to another valid phone number.
- look_up_a_message_detail_record() - Searches for a specific message record ID and returns a Message Detail Record (in MDR2 format).
- look_up_a_set_of_messages() - Retrieves a list of Message Detail Records (MDRs) within a specified date range. Date and time is based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
E911sController
Contains all of the methods necessary to create, update, and validate new and existing E911 addresses, retrieve all of the E911 records, activate and deactive E911 service for long code and toll-free numbers on your account, view all of the phone numbers associated with an E911 record, and remove an E911 address from your account once it is no longer associated with any of your Flowroute phone numbers.
- list_e911s() - Returns a list of all E911 records on your account by default. All request parameters are optional. If you don't specify a limit, results are limited to the first 10 items.
- get_e911(e911_id) - Returns details on a specified E911 record.
- validate_address(e911_attributes) - Lets you validate new and existing E911 addresses on your account.
- create_address(e911_attributes) - Lets you create and validate an E911 address within the US and Canada which can then be assigned to any of the long code or tollfree numbers on your account. To assign an E911 address to your number, see the associate method.
- update_address(e911_id, e911_attributes) - Lets you update and validate an existing E911 address on your account. You must create the E911 address first by following the create_address method.
- associate(e911_id, number_id) - Lets you update and validate an existing E911 address on your account. You must create the E911 address first by following the create_address method.
- disconnect(number_id) - Lets you deactivate the current E911 service for your phone number.
- delete_address(e911_id) - Lets you delete an E911 address associated with your account. You must remove all phone number associations first before you can successfully delete the specified E911 record.
CNAMsController
Contains all of the methods necessary to create and delete CNAM records, view all of the CNAM records associated with your account, filter for specific CNAM records by status, review CNAM record details, and assign and unassign CNAM records to your Flowroute long code phone numbers.
- list_cnams() - Returns a list of all CNAM records on your account by default. You can apply search filters using any of the available query parameters.
- get_cnam(cnam_id) - Returns details pertaining to a specific CNAM record on your account, including long code numbers that are associated with the record.
- create_cnam_record(cnam_value) - Lets you create a Caller ID record for your account which can then be assigned to any of your long code numbers. To assign a CNAM record to your number, see the associate_cnam method.
- associate_cnam(cnam_id, number_id) - Lets you associate a CNAM record with a specified long code number on your account. Note that a CNAM record takes 1-2 days to be approved.
- unassociate(number_id) - Lets you unassign a CNAM record associated with a specified long code number on your account without deleting the CNAM record itself.
- remove_cnam(cnam_id) - Lets you delete a CNAM record from your account. Note that this will automatically disassociate all numbers associated with the deleted CNAM record.
The following shows an example of a single Python file that imports the Flowroute API client and all the required modules. The Python library v3 comes with three example demo files — number_route_message_demo.py, e911_demo.py, cnam_demo.py — files that you can edit and run for demonstration and testing purposes.
import pprint
import os
import json
import random
import string
from flowroutenumbersandmessaging.flowroutenumbersandmessaging_client import FlowroutenumbersandmessagingClient
Credentials
Let's take number_route_message_demo.py as an example. In the file, replace basic_auth_user_name
with your API Access Key and basic_auth_password
with your API Secret Key from the Flowroute Manager. Note that in our example, we are accessing your Flowroute credentials as environment variables. To learn more about setting environment variables, see How To Read and Set Environmental and Shell Variables.
# Set up your api credentials and test mobile number for outbound SMS or MMS
basic_auth_user_name = os.environ.get('FR_ACCESS_KEY')
basic_auth_password = os.environ.get('FR_SECRET_KEY')
mobile_number = "YOUR_MOBILE_NUMBER"
Instantiate API Client and Controllers
Next, instantiate the API Client and its controllers. In the example below, we are only instantiating the necessary controllers for the Numbers,Messages, and Routes resources. The E911 and CNAM demo files come with their own set of required controllers to interact with the associated methods for E911 and CNAM record management.
# Instantiate API client and create controllers for Numbers, Messages, and Routes
client = FlowroutenumbersandmessagingClient(basic_auth_user_name, basic_auth_password)
numbers_controller = client.numbers
routes_controller = client.routes
messages_controller = client.messages
Methods
The following section will demonstrate the capabilities of Numbers v2, Messaging v2.1, E911 v2, and CNAM v2 that are wrapped in our Python library. Note that the example responses have been formatted using Mac's pbpaste
and jq
. To learn more, see Quickly Tidy Up JSON from the Command Line.

resource of Flowroute API v2: https://api.flowroute.com/v2/routes
create_an_inbound_route(route_body)
The method accepts the route object in JSON format as a parameter which you can learn more about in the API reference. In the following example, we define a function to generate a six-character random string for our subdomain which we later concatenate with our example domain and assign as our host
value. We use the same function to generate a unique alias
.
Example Request
print ("---Create an Inbound Route")
# Function to generate six-charac random string
def id_generator(size=6, chars=string.ascii_lowercase + string.digits):
return ''.join(random.choice(chars) for _ in range(size))
new_route = id_generator() + '.sonsofodin.com'
alias = id_generator()
for i in range(6): alias += str(i)
print new_route
request_body = '{ \
"data": { \
"type": "route", \
"attributes": { \
"route_type": "host", \
"value": "' + new_route +'", \
"alias": "' + alias + '" \
} \
} \
}'
result = routes_controller.create_an_inbound_route(request_body)
print result
Example Response
On success, the HTTP status code in the response header is 201 Created
and the response body contains a route object in JSON format.

}
}
update_primary_voice_route(number_id, route_body)
The method accepts a phone number id
and a route record object in JSON format as parameters which you can learn more about in the API reference. In the following example, we extract the second route in our list_inbound_routes
search result and assign it as the primary voice route for our previously declared number_id
.
Example Request
prirouteid = result['data'][1]['id']
request_body = '{ \
"data": { \

Example Response
On success, the HTTP status code in the response header is 204 No Content
which means that the server successfully processed the request and is not returning any content.
204: No Content
update_failover_voice_route(number_id, route_body)
The method accepts a phone number id
and a route record object in JSON format as parameters which you can learn more about in the API reference. In the following example, we extract the third and last route in our list_inbound_routes
search result and assign it as the failover voice route for our previously declared number_id
.
Example Request
secrouteid = result['data'][2]['id']
request_body = '{ \
"data": { \
"type": "route", \
"id": "' + str(secrouteid) +'" \
} \
}'
print ("---Update Failover Voice Route")
result = routes_controller.update_failover_voice_route(number_id, request_body)
if result is None:
print "204: No Content"
else:
print result
Example Response
On success, the HTTP status code in the response header is 204 No Content
which means that the server successfully processed the request and is not returning any content.
204: No Content
