app.config['SMS_CLIENT_ID'] = 'your_client_id_here'
app.config['SMS_API_KEY'] = 'your_api_key_here'
app.config['SMS_SENDER_ID'] = 'your_sender_id_here'

@app.route('/send_sms')
def send_sms_route():
    recipients = []# comma separated  List of string recipient phone numbers in format ["254...", "07.."]
    message = "Hello, this is a test message from Onfon Media API"
    response = send_sms(recipients=recipients, message=message)
    return str(response)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)
