Claims an alphanumeric sender string for your workspace. Country and sender-type policies determine whether registration is unavailable, optional, or required before sending.

Payload della richiesta

type
string
obbligatorio

The kind of sender to create. Only alpha (an alphanumeric sender string) is customer-creatable. Dedicated numbers become senders when you allocate them from inventory. This endpoint cannot create their senders.

Possible values: alpha

sender
string
obbligatorio

The alphanumeric sender string to create, for example "BIRD". 3–11 letters, digits, spaces, dashes, underscores, or dots, at least one of them a letter, and no separator at either end.

Payload di risposta

id
string
obbligatorio

Identifier of this sender.

sender
string
obbligatorio

The value messages are sent from: a number in E.164 format, a shortcode, or an alphanumeric sender string.

source_kind
string
obbligatorio
sender_type
string

The kind of sender identity this is, which decides what each destination country asks of it. It is finer than source_kind: a short code and an ordinary long code are both numbers but follow different rules.

country_code
nullable string

The country of the number this sender sends from. Null for an alphanumeric sender.

number_id
string

The number this sender sends from, as returned in the id field of GET /v1/numbers. Present only when source_kind is number or shared_number; an alphanumeric sender has no number behind it. Exactly one sender exists per number, so this is also how you go the other way: GET /v1/sms/senders?number_id={id} returns this sender.

status
string
obbligatorio
next
array of object

What to do next about this sender, given the state it is in. Present on reads that compute it: an empty list means there is nothing to do, and the field is absent entirely on responses that do not report next actions.

This routes rather than advises. A sender only knows about itself, so where the work is per-country it names the requirements read rather than guessing which country you meant.

destinations
object
obbligatorio
Mostra attributi secondari
destinations.active
array of string
obbligatorio

Countries you can send to today: switched on in your SMS destination settings, and either asking for no registration or holding an approved one. A country counts here however it became usable, including one enabled for you automatically when your organization set its business address.

destinations.pending
array of string
obbligatorio

Countries whose registration is under way and waiting on us or on a carrier. Nothing is asked of you for these; they move to active when the registration is approved.

destinations.needs_attention
array of string
obbligatorio

Countries you have registered for that are not working, and so are waiting on you: the registration was refused or withdrawn, or it is approved but the destination is switched off in your SMS destination settings. While this sender's number is missing the paperwork proving you own it, every country you have registered for is listed here, because none of them can carry a message until that is settled.

created_at
string
obbligatorio
updated_at
string
obbligatorio
