# MessageMedia Lookups Ruby SDK
[](https://travis-ci.org/messagemedia/lookups-ruby-sdk)
[](http://makeapullrequest.com)

The MessageMedia Lookups API provides a number of endpoints for validating the phone numbers you’re sending to by checking their validity, type and carrier records.

## :closed_lock_with_key: Authentication
Authentication is done via API keys. Sign up at https://developers.messagemedia.com/register/ to get your API keys.
Requests are authenticated using HTTP Basic Auth or HMAC. Provide your API key as the auth_user_name and API secret as the auth_password.
## :interrobang: Errors
Our API returns standard HTTP success or error status codes. For errors, we will also include extra information about what went wrong encoded in the response as JSON. The most common status codes are listed below.
#### HTTP Status Codes
| Code | Title | Description |
|-----------|-------------|-------------|
| 400 | Invalid Request | The request was invalid |
| 401 | Unauthorized | Your API credentials are invalid |
| 403 | Disabled feature | Feature not enabled |
| 404 | Not Found | The resource does not exist |
| 50X | Internal Server Error | An error occurred with our API |

It's easy to get started. Simply enter the API Key and secret you obtained from the [MessageMedia Developers Portal](https://developers.messagemedia.com) into the code snippet below and a mobile number you wish to send to.
### Lookup a number
```ruby
require 'message_media_lookups'
# Configuration parameters and credentials
auth_user_name = 'YOUR_API_KEY' # The username to use with basic/HMAC authentication
auth_password = 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY' # The password to use with basic/HMAC authentication
use_hmac = false # Change this to true if you are using HMAC keys
client = MessageMediaLookups::MessageMediaLookupsClient.new(
auth_user_name: auth_user_name,
auth_password: auth_password,
use_hmac: use_hmac
)
lookups_controller = client.lookups
phone_number = 'YOUR_MOBILE_NUMBER'
options = 'carrier,type'
result = lookups_controller.get_lookup_a_phone_number(phone_number, options)
print result.inspect
```
