API Migration Guide

Linq API

// Linq Partner API
const response = await fetch(
  'https://api.linqapp.com/api/partner/v2/chats',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'X-LINQ-INTEGRATION-TOKEN': token,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      phone_number: '+1555', ❌ supports phone numbers only
      text: 'Hello from Linq'
    })
  }
);

Blooio API

Simpler & Faster

// Blooio Messaging API
const response = await fetch(
  'https://backend.blooio.com/v1/api/messages',
  {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      to: '+15551234567', ✅ supports email addresses as well
      text: 'Hello from Blooio'
    })
  }
);

Migration tip: Blooio uses standard Bearer authentication and simpler endpoint structure. Most migrations take under 15 minutes. Our API returns standard HTTP status codes and includes better error messages.

API Features Linq Doesn't Have

Webhook Replay & Advanced Debugging

Failed webhooks are a pain. Blooio lets you replay any webhook event with one click, view full request/response logs, filter by status code, and debug issues without recreating test scenarios.

Webhook Logs

• Live real-time webhook delivery monitoring with one-click replay
  • message.sentAPI200

Message Cancellation

Need to cancel a queued message? Blooio makes it simple with a DELETE request. Perfect for scheduling systems or preventing duplicate sends.

DELETE /v1/api/messages/{messageId}

Contact Capabilities API

Know before you send. Check if a contact supports iMessage, SMS, or RCS before sending your message. Optimize your messaging strategy based on real capabilities.

GET /v1/api/contacts/{contact}/capabilities

Advanced Typing Indicators

Create natural conversation flows with precise typing indicator control. Start and stop typing indicators programmatically for better user experience.

POST /v1/api/typing/{identifier}
DELETE /v1/api/typing/{identifier}

iMessage Effects & Reactions

Send messages with invisible ink, balloons, confetti, and other iMessage effects. React to messages with tapbacks (love, like, laugh, etc.) just like native iMessage.
