To check if the message was sent successfully, you can check the two fields available on SMS History record:

Sent Status
The SentStatus of an SMS gives you the health of the SMS creation process from the salesforce org to the SMS-Magic portal. If it displays “Submitted” in the initial stage, it means that the SMS request has been created successfully.

Delivery Status
The deliveryStatus of an SMS is the real-time delivery report that we receive from the SMS providers. The moment we receive them, we push them back to your SF org.

In short, when we send an SMS from the SF org, a record is created in SMS History tab with the Sent Status as “Submitted”. This means that the SMS has been sent from Salesforce to the SMS Magic portal for further processing. When we receive the delivery report from the provider, we push it back to your org and the Sent Status is updated to “Success” and the Delivery Status is updated with the one shared by the SMS provider.

Additionally, the Status field shows the overall status of the outgoing messages.

The SMS-Magic Account Id and remaining SMS credits are displayed on the SMS Home or Converse Home tab.

Any user who would be triggering manual or automatic message, needs an SMS-Magic license to send messages.

Please note that for automated messages, the user who would be fulfilling the criteria (mentioned in the automation flow) needs to have the SMS-Magic license. In short, when the conditions are satisfied by the respective user, as per Salesforce functionality, that user will become the owner of History record and our logic checks if that user has SMS- Magic license.

SMS-Magic is a connected app on Salesforce for authentication of Data and to push data into Salesforce. As SMS-Magic sends Delivery reports and Incoming SMS back to Salesforce we use OAuth for this purpose.

If someone revokes OAuth access from Salesforce or if your access rights get expired, you may face the following issues:

1. Your Salesforce Org will no longer receive inbound SMS
2. You will no longer receive delivery reports for outbound SMS

In order to continue receiving benefits from SMS-Magic, you need to reset OAuth. Resetting OAuth can be done by following a few simple steps, as follows:

1. Login to SMS-Magic Portal through Salesforce
2. Switch to SMS Magic Converse, go to the Converse Settings page, and click Reset.

3. Ensure that the green checkmark appears on the following page indicating that the access is granted.

Yes, you can add an opt-out message disclaimer at the end of the message body asking your recipients to opt-out by replying with the opt-out keyword e.g. To opt-out reply with STOP. You can also configure an automation process that checks the SMS opt-out field available on that record page layout.
