Return Codes
SMS Notify! API contains a parameter called SMSError, which returns a string indicating errors when sending your request to CDYNE.

Message Length Restrictions
Messages over a specified number of characters (including spaces) will be split into multiple messages by the API if certain parameters/flags are set to "True" within your messaging request.

U.S. SMS
U.S. Carriers are standardized and all text messages are 160 characters (including spaces) in length. When sending a text message to a recipient in the U.S. with more than 160 characters, the SMS Notify! API will automatically split the message into two or more messages for delivery.

Canadian SMS
Canadian Carriers vary from 136 to 160 characters (including spaces) in length. CDYNE sends to Canada the same way as the U.S. To ensure complete message delivery, CDYNE advises that your application only send messages to Canadian recipients in 136 character increments. If the message is longer than 136 characters, the best practice is to split the message on your application side at the 136 character mark to avoid data loss that may occur from Canadian Carriers that truncate anything over 136 or 140 characters.

PostBackURL
Know when your MT message has been sent or your application has received a MO or response message. CDYNE SMS Notify! API will automatically post information to a URL you specify each time an SMS has been sent or received.

DID System Keywords
SMS Notify! API will automatically respond to select keywords when receiving text messages with DIDs.

Short Code System Keywords
SMS Notify! API will automatically respond to select keywords when receiving text messages with short codes.

Short Code Incoming Keyword Management
Managing keywords assigned to short codes.

Unicode Support
SMS Notify! supports Unicode with International Extended DIDs.

Message Concatenation
SMS Notify! supports message concatenation.

Invalid Recipient Phone Numbers
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.
