Documentazione API e CLI SingleFax
Chiave API e crediti prepagati. CLI ufficiale npm o esempi REST pronti per curl, Node, Python, Go e PHP. Le chat usano invece MCP.
CLI
npx @singlefax/cli send FILE --to +E164, passando Word, Excel, PDF o immagine originali, senza conversione preventiva.
REST
POST /api/v1/faxes con Bearer sf_live_… e Idempotency-Key.
Avvio rapido
- Crea una chiave con permessi limitati su Chiavi API (
fax:send,fax:read,inbox:read,credits:read). - Acquista crediti nel pannello o tramite
npx @singlefax/cli credits buy. - Invia con la CLI sotto o
POST /api/v1/faxes.
URL base https://api.singlefax.com (stessi percorsi su https://singlefax.com). Le chiavi sf_test_ non inviano realmente. Non mettere chiavi nel browser.
CLI
Node 20+. Configurazione: SINGLEFAX_API_KEY o ~/.config/singlefax/config.json. Passa il file originale (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, testo o immagine), senza convertirlo prima. Non per MCP OAuth o Stripe MPP.
terminal
export SINGLEFAX_API_KEY=sf_live_…
npx @singlefax/cli send ./document.docx --to +14155552671
npx @singlefax/cli send ./document.pdf --to +14155552671 --wait --jsonquote, status, credits
npx @singlefax/cli quote --to +14155552671 --pages 12
npx @singlefax/cli status <id>
npx @singlefax/cli list
npx @singlefax/cli numbers
npx @singlefax/cli numbers buy
npx @singlefax/cli credits
npx @singlefax/cli credits buy --dollars 20Invia un fax
Una richiesta: documento base64 e destinazione. PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, testo o immagini. Idempotency-Key obbligatorio. Riutilizzare una chiave con corpo diverso restituisce 409.

La CLI crea un token di caricamento, esegue PUT dei byte e invia con uploadToken. Anche PUT richiede Bearer. Preferiscilo a grandi file nel JSON. Non convertire prima in PDF.

| Metodo | Percorso | Autenticazione | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| POST | /api/v1/faxes | fax:send | Idempotency-Key required. JSON { to, base64 | uploadToken } or multipart file. |
| GET | /api/v1/faxes | fax:read | List. Query limit, offset. |
| GET | /api/v1/faxes/{id} | fax:read | Status including latest delivery attempt. |
| POST | /api/v1/faxes/quote | fax:read | { to, pages? | base64? }, quote without charging. |
| POST | /api/v1/uploads | fax:send | Returns uploadToken + uploadUrl. PUT the bytes, then send with uploadToken. |
| GET | /api/v1/credits | credits:read | Prepaid balance. |
| POST | /api/v1/credits/checkout | credits:checkout | { amountCents }. Stripe Checkout for a credit pack. |
| GET | /api/v1/received-faxes | inbox:read | Inbound inbox list. Query limit, cursor. No transcripts in list. |
| GET | /api/v1/received-faxes/{id} | inbox:read | Inbound detail with bounded transcript slice. HIPAA Secure content is omitted. |
| GET | /api/v1/numbers | fax:read | Active fax numbers. |
| POST | /api/v1/numbers | credits:checkout | { sku?, country?, state? }, default inbound_30day. Returns checkoutUrl + reserved phoneNumber. |
| GET | /api/v1/skus | public | Catalog. Same shape as MCP list_skus. |
| POST | /api/v1/checkout | credits:checkout | { sku }, credit_pack, inbound, subscriptions, lifetime. |
Schemi completi: openapi.json. Modifiche incompatibili: politica delle versioni (Sunset di 90 giorni). HTTP 402 su questa API crediti significa saldo insufficiente; MPP 402 è solo POST /api/v1/machine/faxes.
Webhook
Eventi firmati fax.queued, fax.delivered, fax.failed, credits.low_balance. Verifica SingleFax-Signature (t=,v1=) sul corpo originale. HMAC-SHA256 di timestamp.payload. Aggiungi un endpoint in webhook del pannello.

- Conserva le chiavi sul server. Non incorporare
sf_live_in una pagina web. - Non inviare PHI. Gli enti soggetti usano HIPAA Secure sul sito con BAA elettronico.
- Destinazioni E.164 valide. PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, RTF, testo e immagini: MIME in OpenAPI. Non convertire prima in PDF, lo facciamo prima dell’invio.
- MCP chat e Stripe MPP: /agents, mpp.md, MPP e Instant Checkout a confronto.
