Google / Gmail phone verification with an API

Receive the Google SMS verification code programmatically for account creation and recovery flows.

Google asks for a phone number to verify new accounts and to recover existing ones. To automate, provision a number for the google service and read the code.

curl -X POST https://api.eveses.com/api/v1/numbers/orders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" \
  -d '{"country":"us","mode":"activation","service":"google"}'

Google is stricter than most services about number reputation, so coverage varies by country — the live availability on the Google pricing page reflects which pools are working right now. Read the code via /orders/{id}/sms or a webhook, then finish the order.
