Parameter | Data type | Description |
source | String | Required. This is the source number from where the message should be sent. The format is depending on the specified sourceTON. |
sourceTON | TON | This is the source type of number. See allowed TON values below. |
destination | String | Required. This is the destination number. The format is depending on the specified destinationTON. Remember that MSISDNS include the country code and a leading plus sign. (+) |
destinationTON | TON | This is the destination type of number. See allowed TON values below. |
dcs | DCS | Advanced. This is the Data Coding Scheme that should be used when sending the SMS. See allowed DCS values in a separate table. |
userDataHeader | String | Advanced. This value may be specified when sending concatenated SMS, WAP-push, etc. The format is hex encoded 8-bit bytes. More information about valid UDH for long SMS may be given by Support upon request. Common will handle the splitting and concatenation of messages if you do not have a specific reason to do it yourself. |
userData | String | This is the message content itself. The DCS specifies the format (encoding) on this value. Note that messages that messages of more than 140 bytes must be split into multiple messages. Common will do that automatically by default. |
useDeliveryReport | Boolean | True indicates that a delivery report should be sent back when the message has come to a final state. (Delivered or failed) TRUE is mandatory for premium messages. Defaults to TRUE, and it is recommended to use delivery reports. |
deliveryReportGates | List | One or more gates that should be used for sending delivery reports. If you do not specify any Gates to deliver Delivery Reports to, make sure to set useDeliveryReport to FALSE. See the chapter on delivery reports for more information. Required for premium messages. |
relativeValidityTime | Long | This specifies how long the message is supposed to live. If the message takes longer to deliver to the handset than the validityTime, the message will be discarded. The value is specified in milliseconds. Default is 48 hours (172800000). |
absoluteValidityTime | Date | The absolute time when a message should expire. Minimum 15 minutes and maximum 48h in the future. Formatted according to RFC3339, e.g. 2010-03-30T12:59:40+02:00. Overrides relativeValidityTime if both are set. |
tariff | Integer | Price, in local currency, in 1/100 of currency. For example, to send a message costing 5 NOK, this should be set to 500. If you are splitting a long message into multiple segments yourself, set price only on the first segment. Default 0. |
currency | Currency | The currency should be set if the default country currency not to be used. Supported currencies are NOK, SEK, DKK, EUR, LTL. |
vat | Integer | Deprecated - implementations should not use this field any more. The VAT that used for the premium transaction, default differ per market. 2500 equals 25%. Absence or value = -1 means not set. |
age | Integer | Allowed age for (adult) content. |
priority | Priority | See the Priority value table, Optional. |
platformId | String | Your platformId. Provided to you by Support. |
platformPartnerId | String | Your platformPartnerId. Provided to you by Support. |
refId | String | Your own internal transaction ID. Not used for anything except as a reference. |
productDescription | String | When sending premium messages, a description of the service. This will be printed on the end-user’s phone bill. |
productCategory | Integer | When sending premium messages, specify which category the service is. This lets the operator know which rates to apply to the message. Support or your sales contact will help you determine the correct productCategory to set. |
moReferenceId | String | A reference to the ID of the MO message which triggered the MT message. Required for some operators. |
customParameters | KeyValue | Advanced. Additional parameters may be specified if needed. Support will advise you if you need to use custom parameters. |
ignoreResponse | Boolean | Indicates whether you want a response in the body when you submit the message. This is not a delivery report, only a confirmation of message submission. Default is false. |
DCS
Data Coding Scheme sets the encoding used for the message. Default and recommended is TEXT.

In the case of batch sendings, this value can be added within the batchSendRequest or within the SendRequestMessage. But if this customParameter is added within the batchSendRequest, then it will override its value for all the messages within this single batchSendRequest.
Example 1
Here, all the messages will be sent as flash sms, even if the flash.sms customParameter is found with the value “false”within a sendRequestMessage:
...
"userData": "Hello world, second message",
"refId": "qts883r"
}
]
}
Example 2
Here, the first message will be sent as a flash SMS, meanwhile the second one and the third one will be sent as normal SMS. This will work if the customParameter “flash.sms” is absent in the batchSendRequest.
...
Please be aware that when you use the obfuscate function, you are not able to search in message logs for destination number or message content.
Obfuscation Example
Example for “obfuscate.userData”
"customParameters" : { "obfuscate.userData" : "true" }
Example for “obfuscate”
"customParameters" : { "obfuscate" : "true" }
...
The most common result code is 1001 Delivered. This code indicates a successful delivery (and payment, if charged) of the message. Most statuses are final, indicating that the message either has been successfully delivered, or failed in a non-recoverable way.
