SMS Logs and Delivery Status

What SMS Logs Shows

The SMS Logs tab in the sidebar shows every sent and received message for the current ticket:

ColumnDescription
DirectionWhether the message was sent (outbound) or received (inbound)
FromThe number the message was sent from
ToThe number the message was sent to
BodyThe message content
TimestampWhen the message was sent or received
StatusThe last known Twilio delivery status for the message

Logs are paginated. Navigate between pages using the pagination controls at the bottom of the list.


Delivery Status Values

Twilio reports the following delivery statuses:

StatusMeaning
queuedMessage accepted by Twilio but not yet dispatched
sentMessage dispatched to the carrier
deliveredCarrier confirmed delivery to the recipient’s device
failedMessage could not be sent (e.g. invalid number, carrier error)
undeliveredMessage was sent but the carrier reported it was not delivered

Not all carriers report delivery status back to Twilio. sent is as far as confirmation goes for some networks.


Refreshing Delivery Status

Delivery status may update after the message is first logged. To get the latest status from Twilio:

  1. Find the message row in the SMS Logs tab.
  2. Click the refresh icon next to that row.
  3. The app queries Twilio for the current status of that Message SID and updates the row.

Each refresh is independent — you can refresh a single message without reloading the entire log.


Availability

SMS Logs are available on:

  • Freshdesk
  • Freshservice
  • Freshsales

SMS Logs is the only feature available on Freshsales. All other features (auto-reply, scheduled SMS, incoming SMS) require Freshdesk or Freshservice.
