Text messages
A text message is always created inside the environment of a MailUp list, so it cannot be managed outside of that list.
Create a message
Please note that, when creating a new text message, any referenced tag must be created in advance for that list.
Known limitations:
- In some countries, like Italy, some restrictions on SMS senders apply. Use MailUp admin console to verify if the specified sender is subject to limitations in some countries
- MailUp REST API applies, on alphanumeric senders, looser format restrictions than the admin console. While admin console allows only letters and numbers, API also allow spaces, puntuaction and other special characters. Please consider that letters and numbers are supported by any carrier, while other characters may be replaced in some cases. It is recommended that you perform some tests before using a sender with spaces, puntuaction or special characters
- In case of empty Sender the default list settings are applied
