Set a Configuration Set to send SMS using PinPinPoint

0

Hi,

I have configured the AWS End User feature and the Configuration Set on it and works well for my use case, but I want to test sending SMS through PinPoint, but the Configuration Set isn't being respected. I can't see a way to enforce the use of it on the PinPoint API also. There's any way to enforce the use of a Configuration Set created in EndUser Messaging through PinPoint?

Thanks

I apologize, but there seems to be a misunderstanding in your question. Configuration sets created in AWS End User Messaging SMS are not directly applicable to Amazon Pinpoint for sending SMS messages.

# NOTE: The SMS, MMS, voice (text to speech), and push notification features of Amazon Pinpoint are now called AWS End User Messaging

Configuration sets in Amazon Pinpoint are primarily used for email channel settings and are not applicable to SMS messaging within Pinpoint.

For sending SMS messages through Amazon Pinpoint, you don't use configuration sets in the same way as you do with End User Messaging SMS. Instead, you manage SMS settings directly within the Pinpoint console or API for your project.

To configure SMS settings in Amazon Pinpoint:

  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon Pinpoint console.
  2. Select your project.
  3. In the navigation pane, under "Settings", choose "SMS and voice".
  4. In the "SMS settings" section, click "Edit".
  5. Here you can modify SMS-specific settings for your project, such as enabling/disabling the SMS channel, setting the default message type (Transactional or Promotional), and configuring the account spending limit.

When sending SMS messages through the Pinpoint API, these settings will be applied automatically. There's no need to specify a configuration set as you would with End User Messaging SMS.

If you need specific controls or configurations for your SMS messages sent through Pinpoint, you would need to implement those within your API calls or adjust the project-level settings in the Pinpoint console.

  • This doesn't seen to be right, since when I go to PinPoint, to configure the SMS, most of the features introduces the End User Messages as a new PinPoint console feature:

    Introducing the new Pinpoint SMS console experience We've added a new dedicated Pinpoint SMS console to create, view, and manage your SMS resources. To create a new phone pool or manage an existing phone pool, go to the Pinpoint SMS console.

    Here another doc that talks about the Configuration Set inside PinPoint: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/messaging-and-targeting/send-sms-using-the-new-amazon-pinpoint-sms-console/
