  title: Fax.Plus REST API
  description: >-
    This is the Fax.Plus API v3 developed for third party developers and
    organizations. In order to have a better coding experience with this API,
    let's quickly go through some points:<br /><br /> - This API assumes
    **/accounts** as an entry point with the base url of
    **https://restapi.fax.plus/v3**. <br /><br /> - This API treats all date and
    times sent to it in requests as **UTC**. Also, all dates and times returned
    in responses are in **UTC**<br /><br /> - Once you have an access_token, you
    can easily send a request to the resource server with the base url of
    **https://restapi.fax.plus/v3** to access your permitted resources. As an
    example to get the user's profile info you would send a request to
    **https://restapi.fax.plus/v3/accounts/self** when **Authorization** header
    is set to **Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN** and custom header of
    **x-fax-clientid** is set to YOUR_CLIENT_ID
