from __future__ import print_function # python 2/3 compatibility for example code

import telerivet
   
API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY'  # from https://telerivet.com/api/keys
PROJECT_ID = 'YOUR_PROJECT_ID'

tr = telerivet.API(API_KEY)

project = tr.initProjectById(PROJECT_ID)

# Send a SMS message
project.sendMessage(
    to_number = '555-0001',

    sort = 'name'    
).limit(20)

print("%d contacts matching %s:\n" % (cursor.count(), name_prefix))

for contact in cursor:
    print(contact.name, contact.phone_number, contact.vars.birthdate)
