Quickstart

This guide will help you get started with the SIM Swap API. You will learn how to initialize the SDK, send a SIM Swap request, and handle the response.

Prerequisites​

Before you begin, you need to have the following:

Step 1: Get your API Credentials​

To get your API Credentials, you can go to the SIM Swap Product Page and click on "Manage on Provider" to access the service dashboard. For a full guide on how to get your credentials, you can refer to the Registration guide.

Step 2: Create a new project​

Create a new folder and enter the folder from a terminal.

mkdir sim-swap-test
cd sim-swap-test

Step 3: Initialize the SDK​

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install glide-sdk

Step 4: Send a SIM Swap request​

Create a new file index.py and initialize the SDK with your API Key.

index.py
async def main():
    glide = GlideClient(
        client_id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>",
        client_secret="<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>"
    )

    sim_swap_client = await glide.sim_swap.for_user(
        phone_number="+555123456789"
    )

    sim_swap_res = await sim_swap_client.check()
    print(sim_swap_res)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())
