CDYNE’s SMS Notify! SMS Gateway API will automatically clean up
certain errors for U.S. and Canadian phone numbers. For example, if you
were to send a message to “7575449510e,” the API would take
out the “e” and send the message to 7575449510. In this
example, SMS Notify! API would return a parameter of
“NoError” and continue to send the message to the cleaned up
phone number.
While the SMS Notify! text message API will clean errors such as extra
digits and/or letters, it will not clean numbers if it has been entered
incorrectly and is still a valid number. For example if you wanted to
send a notification to 7575449510, but instead you had the number as
7575449501 within your script, the message would be sent to 7575449501
as it is a valid number.
CDYNE SMS Notify! API does not do a phone verification check on phone
numbers, and it will send all valid numbers out. One work around is to
run your phone list through CDYNE Phone Verification
API which will
return whether a phone number is a landline or cell number. CDYNE Phone
Verification API is a cost effective way to distinguish between a
landline and cellular or even fake phone number.
