Validate Phone Numbers

Now let's build on the Send SMS Messages Quickstart and add checking for dead numbers before sending the SMS. We'll use the (ValidateNumber)[doc:rest-pnv-validatenumber] method on the Phone Number Validation API to do this. First, we'll make a call to Validate Number [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": " request({\n method: 'POST',\n url: 'https://services.dynmark.com/webapi/phonenumbervalidation/validatenumber',\n auth: {\n 'user': '@Username@',\n 'pass': '@Password@'\n },\n timeout: 130000,\n json: true,\n body: {\n Number: \"447700900000\",\n IsInternational: true\n }\n })", "language": "javascript" } ] } [/block] Now we need to do something with the response from the call. Let's output to the caller [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": " .then(function(body) {\n switch (body.NumberStatus)\n {\n case 2:\n res.write(\"<div>You phone is on, we're sending you a message.</div>\"); break;\n case 3:\n res.write(\"<div>You phone is off, please switch it on and try again in a few minutes.</div>\"); break;\n case 4:\n res.write(\"<div>You phone number appears to be dead.</div>\"); break;\n case 5:\n res.write(\"<div>You phone number isn't on a mobile network. Have you entered a landline number.</div>\"); break;\n case 6:\n res.write(\"<div>It looks like you entered something that isn't a phone number.</div>\"); break;\n }\n })", "language": "javascript" } ] } [/block] And add some error handling [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": " .catch(function (err) {\n if (err.statusCode == 401)\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Invalid credentials</div>\")\n }\n else if (err.statusCode == 400)\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Bad request format</div>\")\n }\n else\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Non success response</div>\")\n }\n res.end();\n })", "language": "javascript" } ] } [/block] Next we need to insert our call Send Message when we've found a phone number that's switched on: [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": " .then(function(body) {\n \n ...\n \n if (body.NumberStatus == 2) {\n request({\n method: 'POST',\n url: 'https://services.dynmark.com/webapi/message/send',\n auth: {\n 'user': '@Username@',\n 'pass': '@Password@'\n },\n\t\t timeout: 130000,\n json: true,\n body: [{\n from: \"Example\",\n to: \"447700900000\",\n body: \"Hello, this is a test message\",\n deliveryStatusUrl: \"https://inbound.example.com/SmsReceipts\",\n clientRef: \"msg-\" + (++messageId).toString()\n }]\n })\n .then(function(body) {\n if (body[0].successful)\n {\n res.write(\"<div>We sent you a message.</div>\")\n }\n else\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Sorry, we couldn't sent you a message.</div>\");\n if (body[0].validationFailures.some(r => r.failureCode == \"ToInvalid\"))\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Your phone number doesn't look like a valid number.</div>\");\n }\n }\n res.end();\n })\n .catch(function (err) {\n if (err.statusCode == 401)\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Invalid credentials</div>\")\n }\n else if (err.statusCode == 400)\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Bad request format</div>\")\n }\n else\n {\n res.write(\"<div>Non success response</div>\")\n }\n res.end();\n })\n }\n else {\n res.end();\n }", "language": "javascript" } ] } [/block]
