  title: Political Comms API
  summary: >-
    Direct-to-carrier political texting API for campaigns, PACs, advocacy
    organizations, fundraisers, and elected officials.
  description: >-
    Public REST API for the Political Comms platform. Surfaces include Projects
    (compose, test, schedule, send), Conversations (read inbound threads and
    reply inside them), Contact Lists (S3 import and analysis), Media Files,
    Organizations and hierarchy, Brands, Campaigns, Tracking Domains, Phone
    Numbers, Analytics, and Billing.


    Authentication is an API key passed in the `X-API-Key` header. Keys are
    generated from the dashboard at Admin → API and are prefixed `pc_live_`. All
    POST and PATCH endpoints that mutate state are designed to be safe to retry,
    with optional `Idempotency-Key` headers for stronger guarantees. Rate limit
    is 100 requests per minute per key (60-second sliding window; write-only
    keys 60/min, delete-only keys 30/min; the `X-RateLimit-Limit` header reports
    your key's exact limit).


    Webhooks emit `message.sent`, `message.delivered`, `message.failed`,
    `message.replied`, and `link.clicked` events. Payloads are HMAC-signed;
    validate the signature before trusting any payload.

    documentation programmatically. The developer hub at

  - name: Email Campaigns
    description: >-
      Create, schedule, and report on email campaigns. Pause, resume, and test
      sends are deliverability decisions a human makes while watching a send,
      and live in the dashboard. **Early access:** this endpoint answers `403
      EMAIL_EARLY_ACCESS` until the email product is generally available.
  - name: Email Templates
    description: >-
      Create and read saved email templates. **Early access:** this endpoint
      answers `403 EMAIL_EARLY_ACCESS` until the email product is generally
      available.
  - name: Email Senders
    description: >-
      Read the sender identities (From addresses) on your verified domains.
      Identities carry the physical mailing address and paid-for-by disclaimer,
      so they are created and edited in the dashboard. **Early access:** this
      endpoint answers `403 EMAIL_EARLY_ACCESS` until the email product is
      generally available.

      Read, add, and lift suppressions in bulk. This is the primitive for

  - name: Email Lists
    description: >-
      Create email lists, read their contacts, and bulk-upsert or import
      addresses. To stop mailing someone use Email Suppressions, which survives
      a re-import. **Early access:** this endpoint answers `403
      EMAIL_EARLY_ACCESS` until the email product is generally available.
  - name: Media Files
    description: List, import, and fetch media files.
  - name: Sending Domains
    description: >-
      Read the sending domains in your organization and the DNS records to
      publish. Domains are added in the dashboard: DNS is published by hand, so
      creation is not part of the API. **Early access:** this endpoint answers
      `403 EMAIL_EARLY_ACCESS` until the email product is generally available.
  - name: Tracking Domains
    description: >-
      List active link-tracking domains. Use the returned ids as
