Telnyx Oauth - JavaScript
Installation
npm install telnyx@6.74.2
Setup
import Telnyx from 'telnyx';
const client = new Telnyx({
apiKey: process.env['TELNYX_API_KEY'], // This is the default and can be omitted
publicKey: process.env['TELNYX_PUBLIC_KEY'], // Required for client.webhooks.unwrap() (webhook verification)
});
All examples below assume client is already initialized as shown above.
Error Handling
All API calls can fail with network errors, rate limits (429), validation errors (422),
or authentication errors (401). Always handle errors in production code:
try {
const result = await client.messages.send({ to: '+13125550001', from: '+13125550002', text: 'Hello' });
} catch (err) {
if (err instanceof Telnyx.APIConnectionError) {
console.error('Network error — check connectivity and retry');
} else if (err instanceof Telnyx.RateLimitError) {
// 429: rate limited — wait, then retry the request (bounded exponential backoff)
const retryAfter = err.headers?.['retry-after'] || 1;
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, retryAfter * 1000));
// ...retry the call here (give up after a few attempts)
} else if (err instanceof Telnyx.APIError) {
console.error(`API error ${err.status}: ${err.message}`);
if (err.status === 422) {
console.error('Validation error — check required fields and formats');
}
}
throw err; // Re-throw: a failed request must never look like success to the caller
}
Common error codes: 401 invalid API key, 403 insufficient permissions,
404 resource not found, 422 validation error (check field formats),
429 rate limited (retry with exponential backoff).
Important Notes
- Pagination: List methods return an auto-paginating iterator. Use
for await (const item of result) { ... } to iterate through all pages automatically.
