  title: Bird Esim Zones API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'Build communications into your applications and AI workflows with the Bird API.

    Explore endpoints for email, SMS, WhatsApp, verification, and realtime messaging.


    Start with the developer documentation, browse the

    API reference, or connect your agent through the

    Bird MCP server.


    Setting a `User-Agent` header is recommended but not required. Official Bird

    SDKs set it automatically (format: `bird-/`). The header is

    used for operational logging and customer-support diagnostics; the API never

    rejects requests that omit it.


    Rate limits are advertised on every response from a rate-limited endpoint as

    IETF `RateLimit` and `RateLimit-Policy` headers (Structured Fields per RFC

    9651; spec draft-ietf-httpapi-ratelimit-headers-11). On 429 responses, a

    `Retry-After` header in seconds is also returned. Clients should pace

    themselves against the `r` (remaining) and `t` (seconds until reset) params

    in the `RateLimit` header rather than only reacting to 429s.


    The deprecation policy explains how

    the API marks a deprecated field, query parameter, or body shape, including

    the `Deprecation` response header (RFC 9745).'
