# Linq

Channel integration for eve. iMessage and SMS conversations through Linq, with guided Connect or portable setup.

## Install

Add Linq from eve's registry, then follow the guided Connect or portable credential setup:

```bash
eve add channel/linq
```

## Quick start

Create `agent/channels/linq.ts`:

```ts
import { connectLinqCredentials } from "@vercel/connect/eve";
import { linqChannel } from "eve/channels/linq";

export default linqChannel({
  credentials: connectLinqCredentials("linq/my-agent"),
});
```

## Configure

The guided setup can provision a managed Linq line with Vercel Connect or collect portable credentials. Connect-backed setup creates a native Linq connector and routes verified triggers to `/eve/v1/linq`; with portable credentials, deploy first, then create a signed Linq webhook for that route.
