I am having trouble getting SNS to send a verification code when I am trying to verify a user attribute. In this case, I am trying to verify a user's phone_number.
My SNS account is in sandbox mode; I have verified that I'm able to successfully send myself a test SNS message from the AWS console.
When making the request from within my app (node) I am getting the following 200 response:
{
"CodeDeliveryDetails": {
"Destination": "+*******1234",
"DeliveryMedium": "SMS",
"AttributeName": "phone_number"
}
}
Although I don't actually ever receive a text message. I have seen that a possible solution is to increase the spend limit. However, this is the first few messages I've sent so I don't think that is my issue.
I can see in the SNS page that I have 4 messages sent, 3 failed (the successful was my test message). Is there a place to look at logs within the SNS context?
How can I find out why my messages aren't sending when making a seemingly successfuly request to cognitoIdentityServiceProvider.verifyUserAttribute
Following up here, Arpit Jain really helped point me in the right direction. Because I was in sandbox in my AWS SMS account, I could only send to my verified phone number.
I had my number verified within my sandbox, but because of some recent regulation updates (please correct me if I am wrong), I need to verify my toll-free number (the number sending my verification code) within Pinpoint.
Pinptoint provides a toll-free registration form that I needed to fill out and provide my use case. It took a bit, but once it was approved, I am now successfully receiving the verification code from Cognito.
