Sending an SMS through Twilio letting it chose the From number with a MessagingServiceSid doesn't work

问题

I'm trying to send an SMS using twilio, without specifying a specific From number, instead letting Copilot chose the best number for me (as documented in https://www.twilio.com/docs/api/rest/sending-messages#post-parameters-conditional).

However, when sending a request, the Twilio REST API complains that I did not specify a From number. Specifying a From number, as expected, works. But I'd like to avoid this to be more flexible in case I need more numbers down the road. Am I misunderstanding the documentation ?

I used HTTPie to test the API. The full request/response :

$ http --print=HBhb --form POST 'https://$ACCOUNT_SID:$ACCOUNT_TOKEN@api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/$ACCOUNT_SID/SMS/Messages.json' MessagingServiceSid=$SERVICE_SID To=$PHONE Body=Hello

回答1:

I can see that you have a number in the MessageService, however it looks like you are using the old deprecated endpoint that does not support sending with the MessageService.

You have: /2010-04-01/Accounts/$ACCOUNT_SID/SMS/Messages.json

You should be using: /2010-04-01/Accounts/$ACCOUNT_SID/Messages.json

Give that a try and let me know how it goes.
