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).'
