I have few question on sms since we are new and exploring all the apis here.
What is the maximum size of an sms? How much text size it hold? Any limitation?
Will there be any affect in sms sending time taken by the sms carrier?
If I send an sms from api, how to check message status on delivery to confirm?
As per this link: https://ringcentral-faq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sms/
"RingCentral's service sends individual messages up to 160 characters and can concatenate longer messages up to 1000 characters. "
Yes, big and long message require the receiving carrier to be able to process and combine the messages. and affect the carrier as it can take little time.
If you check this: https://developers.ringcentral.com/api-reference/SMS/createSMSMessage
There is a messageStatus in the API return:
Queued, Sent, Delivered, DeliveryFailed, SendingFailed, Received
You get to know the sms delivery status.
Also you can check the call logs
Enter your E-mail address. We'll send you an e-mail with instructions to reset your password.
