Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I see if my SMS messages were delivered?

You can ask your AI to pull specific delivery reports or check the status of a transaction using its unique ID. This gives you immediate confirmation of whether a message hit the recipient's phone. You'll see the specific outcomes below.

Status outcomes

Where your status updates land.

The AI processes your request and puts the information where you need it.

SUCCESS

Confirmed deliveries

The AI uses delivery reports to confirm a message reached the handset. You get a clear 'delivered' status for your records.

FAILURE

Delivery errors

If a message fails, the AI identifies the specific error code. You'll know exactly why the recipient didn't get the text.

PENDING

In-flight messages

The AI checks the current state of a transaction. It tells you if the message is still being processed by the carrier.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

If a message is stuck or the error is complex, the AI flags it for you. You decide if you need to resend or contact support.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for a status update.

Instead of you logging into a dashboard, your AI does the heavy lifting.

  1. Identify the message

    You give the AI a transaction ID or a phone number from your recent logs. The AI prepares to look up that specific event.

    get_transaction_status
  2. Fetch the status

    The AI pulls the current state of that transaction to see if it's sent, delivered, or failed.

    get_transaction_status
  3. Retrieve details

    For a deeper look, the AI pulls the full delivery report to find timestamps or error reasons.

    get_delivery_report
  4. Report findings

    The AI summarizes the result in plain English. It tells you if the job is done or if you need to take action.

    get_delivery_report
