Q3 2024: Vonage Developer Recap
Published on October 8, 2024

The Season of Momentum

If Q1 is for planning and Q2 is for launching, then Q3 is for accelerating, and boy did we accelerate in Q3! The last few months have been all about building on the momentum of the year. At Vonage, we’ve continued to accelerate our pace, creating and enhancing opportunities that empower developers with innovative solutions.

New Offerings

Innovation drives the technology industry, and this quarter, we delivered cutting-edge solutions that open new opportunities in Network APIs and enhance customer experience with custom OTP templates.

The New Network APIs Sandbox

Network APIs are beginning to open a whole new world for developers: the ability to extend your application into mobile networks. Imagine how knowing real-time network data about your users could help you improve your application's performance, security, and reliability. However, this new area of untapped potential will require new tools and paradigms. Thankfully we’re here to help! To help you get started, we’ve launched the Network API Sandbox.

Announcing Vonage Virtual CSP for Network APIs

Network APIs are generating a lot of excitement, and like most developers, you’re eager to dive in and start testing. But what if the APIs aren’t available in your country, or you don’t have a phone number from the supported CSPs? That’s why we created the Virtual Communication Service Provider (CSP), allowing you to test the APIs right away.

The Virtual CSP offers predefined, deterministic API responses, enabling developers to safely explore Network APIs in a controlled environment. Learn how to enable and start using the Virtual CSP.

Template Management for Verify

Is there a more overused phrase in product design than wanting to “delight your customers”? While the phrase has become a cliche, the maxim should continue to ring true. Each step of the user journey should be an opportunity to give the best possible experience.One place you may not have thought about improving is the delivery of One-Time Password (OTP). With the new Template Management for Verify API, you can customize the message in your OTP and find ways to give your users and even better experience.

What’s Coming in Q4?

Whether it’s expanding our suite of Network APIs, adding new customer engagement channels (like RCS Business Messaging), or improving existing services, what would you like to see in Q4? We’d love to hear from you, join the Your Vonage Viewpoint user group.
