I am calling the AccountService.GetSentMessages method from a VB.Net 2008. At the same time, I am looking at the corresponding "Sent Items" from our customer's Esendex Web console.
Messages which appear as "Delivered" in the Web console appear as "Failed" in the "AccountService.message.status" field.
Messages which appear with a valid "Delivered at" date/time in the Web console appear as "00:00:00" in the "receivedat" field.
Example:
Message details, seen from the Web console (URL=https://www.esendex.com/echo/Message/dffbed20-b13f-4c3d-b6a3-xxxxxxxxxxxx):
From xxx
To 3366xx446xx
Type SMS
Message Something
Direction Outbound
Status Delivered
Last updated at 13:30:00
Sent at 13:30:41
Delivered at 13:30:00
Parts 1
Fields of a message returned by AccountService.GetSentMessages:
id=dffbed20-b13f-4c3d-b6a3-xxxxxxxxxxxx,
recipient=3366xx446xx,
status=Failed
sent at=19/10/2010 13:30:41,
received at=00:00:00
Code snippet:
- Code: Select all
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim myAccountService As New WS_AccountService.AccountServiceSoapClient
Dim myMessengerHeader As New WS_AccountService.MessengerHeader
Dim myMessages() As WS_AccountService.message
Dim iMessageLimit As Integer
Dim iNbMessages As Integer
myMessengerHeader.Username = "xxx"
myMessengerHeader.Password = "yyy"
myMessengerHeader.Account = "zzz"
iMessageLimit = myAccountService.GetMessageLimit(myMessengerHeader)
myMessages = myAccountService.GetSentMessages(myMessengerHeader, 2010, 10)
iNbMessages = myMessages.GetLength(0)
For Each myMessage As WS_AccountService.message In myMessages
Console.WriteLine("id=" & myMessage.id.ToString & ", recipient=" & myMessage.recipient & ", status=" & myMessage.status.ToString & ", sent at =" & myMessage.sentat & ", received at " & myMessage.receivedat)
Next
End Sub
End Module
Is this working as expected?
Is there a workaround, which would help me retrieve the actual status and received date/time of a message?
Thanks in advance for sharing your valuable experience in the matter.
