MESSAGE_TEXT

• Type: string
• Description: This is the text of the message you send to the recipient.

ID

• Type: string
• Description: This is an internal reference ID for this message, provided by SMS Central. This is used for internal SMS Central tracking and you may quote this ID in support requests.

REFERENCE

• Type: string
• Description: This is the (optional) unique REFERENCE value for the message that you provided when sending an SMS. This allows you to match the delivery receipt to the message you sent.

RESULT

• Type: string
• Description: This is a numerical result of the delivery status, providing a final confirmation value of the delivery or failure of the message. Please see Success and Error Response Codes  for possible values.

UDH

• Type: string
• Description: This is the standard User Data Header used in GSM to identify different parts of a multipart message. The value consists of 6 octets of hex digits.
  An example value is: 0500038A0302
  - The first 3 octets will always be "050003".
  - The next octet ("8A" in the example) identifies the group. However, since we will pass your reference back to you in the delivery receipt, this octet will probably be useful for double checking only.
  - The next octet ("03" in the example) specifies the total number of parts in the group.
  - The last octet ("02" in the example) specifies the particular part of this message/delivery receipt. In this case, the delivery receipt would be for the second part of a 3-part message.In order to check that the full message is delivered, you will need to look at the last 2 octets to check how many parts a message has, and check that you received a positive delivery for each part.

  DELIVERD – this indicates the message, or this part of the message has been delivered
  BUFFRED – this indicates the message has been sent to the carrier and is currently undelivered by the carrier with a temporary failure result (i.e phone may be out of range)
  FAILED – this indicates that the carrier was unable to deliver the message
