About vonage-node-sdk
Vonage/vonage-node-sdk
Vonage API client for Node.js. API support for SMS, Voice, Text-to-Speech, Numbers, Verify (2FA) and more.
Built as a modular monorepo with composable packages (auth, SMS, voice, messages, video, verify, accounts, etc.), the SDK uses Promise-based async patterns and supports flexible authentication via the `@vonage/auth` package. It covers 25+ Vonage APIs including emerging capabilities like Number Insight V2, Audit, and opt-in Network APIs (number verification, SIM swap), with clear migration paths from v2 to the current architecture.
