How to send a text using AWS and Serverless - Complete Tutorial - SMS API 

Try running it from command prompt or inside VS code in the terminal section to your extreme right you can see down arrow symbol,click on that select command prompt and run the command

Great idea. I've covered Cognito before but never actually how to add that to an endpoint

Good point. A quick Google says that it's because phone companies are greedy. It uses almost none of their network bandwidth but people pay it so they keep charging for it

This video builds off what I've covered in a previous video but here's the code. const Responses = { _DefineResponse(statusCode = 502, data = {}) { return { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods': '*', 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*', }, statusCode, body: JSON.stringify(data), }; }, _200(data = {}) { return this._DefineResponse(200, data); }, _204(data = {}) { return this._DefineResponse(204, data); }, _400(data = {}) { return this._DefineResponse(400, data); }, _404(data = {}) { return this._DefineResponse(404, data); }, }; export default Responses;

You can make a request to move your account out of sandbox mode. This will allow you to send to messages to any mobile number. There are some requirements for getting your account unlocked though

There is a plugin called "Serverless IDE" and I think that is the one you're talking about. It is good but not perfect

I'm assuming that you could create a wordpress plugin which calls the API from this video. I've never worked with wordpress before so I'm not certain how it would work.

You should be able to combine the code from this video, the video on emails (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4o6GCiUX8Xk.html) and the one of dynamo write (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AguTaMQGACE.html) to get that functionality. Let me know how that goes

I've not worked with the dead letter queue from SNS so couldn't advise you on that

The code ( the JavaScript part) for this is all Lambda code. The section where we are in the serverless.yml file is configuration for AWS. This is telling it to create a lambda with the sendSMS handler code, as well as adding an API Gateway endpoint that triggers the event for that lambda. I hope that helps.

You may have to check which countries are automatically allowed by AWS. I think that some you will have to make a request to send messages to. Have a search of the AWS docs.

Have you configure cloudwatch logs for SNS text messaging service ? you can find reason in the logs

Same here, the api got execute but no sms was sent. did you find out the solution yet?

check that your regions match.

unfortunately SNS only works with sending messages at the moment. You could use a platform like twilio (which has a great API) for sending and receiving messages. SNS is more about sending updates to users

Thank you for reply🙂😇

Thats a nice use case. There are services out there that you could completely replace with this

I'm looking into the best way to teach the AWS CDK and will be making a video shortly. Make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss out on that.
