## Send an SMS

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl -X POST https://developer.mycpaas.io/api/laml/2010-04-01/Accounts/{ACCOUNT_SID}/Messages.json \
    -u ACxxx:AUTH_TOKEN \
    -d "To=+491234567890" \
    -d "From=+491098765432" \
    -d "Body=Hello from mycpaas"
  ```

  ```javascript Node.js theme={null}
  const axios = require("axios");

  const ACCOUNT_SID = "xxxxx";
  const AUTH_TOKEN = "your_auth_token";

  async function sendSMS() {
    const response = await axios.post(
      `https://developer.mycpaas.io/api/laml/2010-04-01/Accounts/${ACCOUNT_SID}/Messages.json`,
      new URLSearchParams({
        To: "+491234567890",
        From: "+491098765432",
        Body: "Hello from mycpaas",
      }),
      {
        auth: {
          username: ACCOUNT_SID,
          password: AUTH_TOKEN,
        },
      }
    );
    console.log("Message SID:", response.data.sid);
  }

  sendSMS();
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  import requests
  from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth

  ACCOUNT_SID = "ACxxx"
  AUTH_TOKEN = "your_auth_token"

  url = f"https://developer.mycpaas.io/api/laml/2010-04-01/Accounts/{ACCOUNT_SID}/Messages.json"

  response = requests.post(
      url,
      data={
          "To": "+491234567890",
          "From": "+491098765432",
          "Body": "Hello from mycpaas",

      auth=HTTPBasicAuth(ACCOUNT_SID, AUTH_TOKEN),
  )

  print("Message SID:", response.json()["sid"])
  ```

## Migrating from Twilio or SignalWire

Just replace the **base URL** — everything else stays the same:

| Provider   | Old URL                     | New URL                |
| ---------- | --------------------------- | ---------------------- |
| Twilio     | `api.twilio.com`            | `developer.mycpaas.io` |
| SignalWire | `your-space.signalwire.com` | `developer.mycpaas.io` |

<Note>
  Your existing Account SIDs and Auth Tokens remain unchanged.
