Getting started with Amazon Pinpoint SMS

This topic shows you how to use the Amazon Pinpoint SMS console to manage phone numbers, sender IDs, pools, and configuration sets, and then send test messages. The Amazon Pinpoint SMS workshop is targeted for developers and technical individuals who are comfortable using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to run API commands.

Note

When you set up a new Amazon Pinpoint SMS account, it is placed in a sandbox for SMS, MMS, and voice message channels until you request production access. In the sandbox, you can access all of features of Amazon Pinpoint SMS, with restrictions on your SMS, MMS, and voice messages.

• For information about the SMS/MMS sandbox restrictions, see SMS/MMS sandbox.

• For information about the voice sandbox restrictions, see Voice sandbox.

When you're ready to move from the sandbox to production, create an AWS Support case for a Service limit increase request for each channel that you want to move.
