Realtime Data over WebSocket

After creating a Service User within the Chronicall UI, you will be given an authentication key.
Anytime a request is made to the API, an authentication key must be present.

By having the authorization key present, you will be able to access everything that the Service User is set up in Chronicall to have access to.

Note: For this feature, you must be updated to version 4.0.9 or newer.
