Records api end-point

Hello folks

Do we have a way to save the contact number in CHT while contact is going through a flow in Text-it? , i have been looking at the records api and wondering if posting to this end point sounds right…

Hi @cliff ,

Is the flow creating a new contact? If so, use the create person API. Otherwise if you don’t want to create a person but record the sender as part of the report submission then the records API is suitable.

Then yes, you can use the records API to submit a JSON form report. Alternatively read through the RapidPro Messaging Gateway documentation which might do exactly what you’re after.
