Is there a way to send an SMS to multiple phone numbers separately using the API? I know that the SMS sending API endpoint accepts an array of phone numbers in the "to" argument, but when I do that with multiple phone numbers it sends as a group text including all the recipients. I was wondering if there's a way to separately send the same message to multiple recipients with one API call. I know the API accepts batch requests, but I'm unsure if this is supported for the SMS sending API endpoint.
Sending SMS to multiple numbers at once using API (not as a group message)
Hi Josh,
Good thinking about using the batch, but I don't it is supported for sending SMS messages. The document says that batch request is implemented via the methods
We call multiple recipient is group messaging and that is why all recipient number will be included in the to field.
The only option is to make a loop and send out 1 by one.

GET
, DELETE
and PUT
with all their features. So most probably it is a no when sending SMS is a POST request.We call multiple recipient is group messaging and that is why all recipient number will be included in the to field.
