SMS account status

This is the status of your account, the last time messages were checked on the Twilio server, and a link to set up your account.

Testing

If your account's status shows as "Active/verified", use this tool to send a test message.

Update outbound message statuses and retrieve inbound messages

Click Get message statuses to retrieve new incoming messages and verify the status of previously sent messages. Because of limitations in Twilio's API, VSys may retrieve the same incoming messages more than once, and check the status of outbound messages more than once. This will not result in duplicate messages being created in VSys.

Tools
