Overview

This skill demonstrates how to manage Telnyx hosted messaging: order and validate hosted SMS numbers, submit toll‑free verification requests, and send RCS messages using the JavaScript SDK. It provides clear, practical patterns for migrating numbers, enabling rich messaging, and performing verification workflows. Examples focus on the SDK calls you’ll use in real applications.

How this skill works

Initialize the Telnyx JavaScript client with an API key and call the hosted messaging endpoints to list, create, retrieve, or delete hosted number orders. Upload verification documents, generate and validate verification codes, and check hosted number eligibility. For rich messaging, manage RCS agents, check RCS capabilities, add test numbers, generate deeplinks, and send RCS messages through the SDK. Toll‑free verification flows let you submit, update, retrieve, list, and delete verification requests.

When to use it

  • You’re migrating phone numbers to a hosted messaging provider and need programmatic ordering and teardown.
  • You must complete toll‑free verification for high‑volume or A2P messaging compliance.
  • You want to enable RCS (rich messaging) features and test RCS agent and capability workflows.
  • You need to bulk‑check phone number eligibility before ordering hosted numbers.
  • You require server‑side creation and validation of verification codes for hosted numbers.

Best practices

  • Keep your API key secret and load it from environment variables on the server only.
  • Validate eligibility before ordering numbers to avoid provisioning failures.
  • Upload clear, accurate documentation for verification requests to speed approval.
  • Create and validate verification codes server‑side and implement retry/backoff for delivery issues.
  • Use test RCS agent numbers and deeplinks to validate rich messaging flows before production.

Example use cases

  • Automate migrating a pool of customer numbers into Telnyx hosted numbers with eligibility checks and document uploads.
  • Submit and manage toll‑free verification requests for a service sending large volumes of transactional SMS or OTPs.
  • Enable RCS conversational messages by creating agents, inviting test numbers, checking capabilities, and sending agent messages.
  • Generate verification codes for new hosted numbers, validate them upon receipt, and delete orders when decommissioning.

FAQ

Do I need a special account to use hosted numbers and RCS?

You need a Telnyx account with messaging permissions and access to the hosted messaging and toll‑free features; contact your Telnyx rep if features are unavailable.

Where should I run verification code generation and validation?

Run those operations server‑side to keep codes and API keys secure and to control retries and audit logging.
