## **Dependencies**

This asset is a simple **API** to interact with the **Vivox Unity SDK** which is available in the **Unity Asset Store** as **Vivox Voice and Text Chat**. This asset is built on top of **Vivox Voice and Text Chat** and will not work without it (You can also download the **SDK** through Vivox’s website, and this asset will still work if that is your preferred method). You must create an account with **Vivox** at [Login - Vivox Developer Portal](https://developer.vivox.com/) and agree to Vivox’s Terms or sign up with [Unity Gaming Services](https://unity.com/solutions/gaming-services) and accept their Terms of Use before you can use their services. **Unity Gaming Services**(**UGS**) may require a credit/debit card to sign up and use their services.
