Getting Your Own Copy of a Fax

Whew! It’s been a while since we last blogged, but don’t let that deceive you; we’ve been incredibly hard at work on new features that we’ll be rolling out soon. Today, I’m going to let you in on a small (but important) feature called faxFile. Use faxFile to retrieve either a pdf or jpg image of a fax that you’ve already sent. You can request the jpg image in either a large l or small s thumb.

Here’s an example:

curl <a href="https://www.phaxio.com/api/v1/faxFile">https://www.phaxio.com/api/v1/faxFile</a> \
  -F 'id=fax_id' \
  -F 'type=p,s,l' \
  -F 'api_key=YOUR_API_KEY' \
  -F 'api_secret=YOUR_API_SECRET' \

Phaxio will respond with a dumping of the file. It’s that simple.

Start sending faxes right now!

We'll give you an API test key that you can use in your staging environment for free, and unlimited API calls.
