When we send any sms we can get the sms messages id in the response and i have noticed that in the response the status is always read by default:

"readStatus":"Read"

I am not sure why the default is read and what does it mean?

What are the way if I need to change the status into not read or unread ?

Can it be changed with java SDK?

There are basically 2 status: Read, Unread

When the SMS is send the readStatus is always "Read"

You can use the message store API to update the status of your message.

Check this API here:

https://developers.ringcentral.com/api-reference/Message-Store/updateMessage

Every SMS message have a messageId and you need to use that messageId to update the readStatus.

eg:

PUT https://platform.devtest.ringcentral.com/restapi/v1.0/account/~/extension/~/message-store/<your message id>

You can change the status with this API. Also using SDK, you can change that.

Check the demo here in Java:
