Overview
The Verify API enables you to generate, send, and verify OTP codes for the SMS channel. You can utilize this API to generate OTP codes as defined in the payloads. Integrating it into your own websites or apps, you can trigger it on login pages, payment pages, and more.
After you create your channel for your brand and update the templates, you need to perform the verify action for your OTP.
