To troubleshoot issues related to SMS delivery, you can enable delivery reporting with Event Grid to capture delivery details.
If you want to clean up and remove a Communication Services subscription, you can delete the resource or resource group. Deleting the resource group also deletes any other resources associated with it. Learn more about cleaning up resources.
To use a new toll-free number for sending SMS messages, you must complete a toll-free verification process. For guidance on how to complete the verification of your toll-free number, see the Quickstart for submitting a toll-free verification. Only fully verified toll-free numbers are authorized to send out SMS traffic. Any SMS traffic from unverified toll-free numbers directed to US and CA phone numbers are blocked.
