Hello All,

New to RingCentral development, but I created an app with an SMS endpoint (send SMS only) and built some code to get it working in the sandbox. Code works perfectly using the Sandbox credentials/client/server info. The app was then graduated, so I updated the following to the graduated app's credentials/info:

$client_id = 'production_appclientid'; //Removed for security

$client_secret = 'production_appclientsecret'; //Removed for security

$server_url = 'https://platform.ringcentral.com';

$rc_jwt = 'production_jwt_key'; //Removed for security


Having changed only the above 4 lines of code, the app is now failing at the highlighted line below:

function send_sms($fromNumber){

  global $platform, $RECIPIENT;

  try {

    $requestBody = array(

       'from' => array ('phoneNumber' => $fromNumber),

       'to' => array( array('phoneNumber' => $RECIPIENT) 

       'text' => 'test'

    );

    $endpoint = "/account/~/extension/~/sms";

    $resp = $platform->post($endpoint, $requestBody);

    $jsonObj = $resp->json();

    print("SMS sent. Message id: " . $jsonObj->id . PHP_EOL);

    check_message_status($jsonObj->id);

  } catch (RingCentralSDKHttpApiException $e) {

    exit("Error message: " . $e->message . PHP_EOL);

  }

}

I still have the Sandbox Environment active, do I need to suspend that? The Production Environment Status is "Active", and I'm able to see the requests I'm submitting are generating errors via the analytics panel.


When I view the Production End Points analytics, I see the errors are all to the endpoint "1/account/*/extension/*/sms". Every request to that endpoint in the Production Environment results in an error 403 or 400. Do I need to enable another endpoint for my app?


Any help/suggestions appreciated.

Did you also call this function to detect the user's phone numbers and if the "from" phone number is SMS enabled?

/*

  Read phone number(s) that belongs to the authenticated user and detect if a phone number

  has the SMS capability

*/

function read_extension_phone_number_detect_sms_feature(){

  global $platform;

  $endpoint = "/restapi/v1.0/account/~/extension/~/phone-number";

  $resp = $platform->get($endpoint);

  $jsonObj = $resp->json();

  foreach ($resp->json()->records as $record){

    foreach ($record->features as $feature){

      if ($feature == "SmsSender"){

        // If a user has multiple phone numbers, check and decide which number

        // to be used for sending SMS message.

        return send_sms($record->phoneNumber);

      }

    }

  }

  if (count($jsonObj->records) == 0){

    exit("This user does not own a phone number!");

  }else{

    exit("None of this user's phone number(s) has the SMS capability!");

  }

}

Your user extension does not need to have a license and phone. But it does need a phone number. You can purchase a phone number and assign to the user as a direct number then that user can send text message from his own number.

Thank you. I appreciate all your help.
