  title: Sinch Conversation Capability API
  description: The Sinch Conversation API is an omnichannel messaging platform that enables developers to send and receive messages across multiple channels including SMS, RCS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Viber, Telegram, KakaoTalk, and LINE through a single unified API. It provides contact management, conversation tracking, message templating, and webhook callbacks for real-time event handling. The API normalizes message formats across channels, allowing developers to build multichannel messaging experiences without channel-specific integrations.
