Documentbron (precies één per fax): content (tekst of Markdown), file_base64 + file_name (PDF, DOCX, JPG, PNG, TXT; max. 15 MB) of file_url (openbare https-URL).

✔ Tip: controleer eerst de kosten met /fax/price, stuur altijd een unieke idempotency_key mee (herhalingen versturen nooit dubbel), gebruik max_cost als bovengrens en vraag /fax/{id} op tot "delivered" of "failed". Mislukte faxen worden automatisch teruggeboekt.
