Send RCS Template Message

Send an approved RCS template to a customer. RCS templates are created and approved inside the Splashify Pro dashboard — each has a unique template_id (a UUID) that you reference here.

Note: RCS must be enabled on your account and the template must be in the approved state. If RCS isn’t enabled this endpoint returns 403.

Endpoint

Headers

Request body

{
  "to": "919876543210",
  "template_id": "bbd644a9-502a-11f1-a6c3-7e338e7c5434",
  "variables": ["Aditya", "482913"]
}

Template variables

If your RCS template contains placeholders, they are filled positionally from the variables array:

• variables[0] replaces every {#var1#} in the template
• variables[1] replaces every {#var2#}
• …and so on.

A template body of:

Hi {#name#}, your one-time password is {#var1#}. It expires in {#var2#} minutes.

sent with "variables": ["482913", "5"] is delivered as:

Hi Aditya, your one-time password is 482913. It expires in 5 minutes.

{#name#} is special — it is always auto-filled with the contact’s saved name (the recipient’s display name in your contacts), so you never pass it in variables. Provide values for {#var1#}, {#var2#}, … only.

Pass variables in the same order the placeholders are numbered. Extra values are ignored; missing ones leave the {#varN#} placeholder in place — so always send as many values as the template has variables.

Example

curl -X POST https://apis.splashifypro.com/api/v1/public/rcs/send-template \
