We are using the Twilio PHP SDK and the Notify Client. When I make a request how do I get the status of that request. Did it return a good 2XX, an error 4XX? And to be clear, I don't mean, what is the status of the messages. I simply mean, did twilio get my API call?
When testing in Postman with the REST API I typically get a 200 or 201 response if everything went well.
$twilio = new Client($acct_sid, $token);
$Addresses = array("+12015551234");
$toBindingAttributes = array();
foreach ($Addresses as $Address) {
array_push($toBindingAttributes, '{"binding_type":"sms","address":"' . $Address . '"}');
}
$notification = $twilio->notify->services($notify_sid)
->notifications->create([
"toBinding" => $toBindingAttributes,
"body" => "Twilio Test."
]);
I've tried to return $notification and I just get [Twilio.Notify.V1.NotificationInstance]
-----Edit-----
ok I realize now that [Twilio.Notify.V1.NotificationInstance]
is an object. I was able to print_r($notification)
and see that there is a statusCode property.
I tried to echo that property print_r(@notification->statusCode)
but I get "Unknown Property".
Is it because it's "protected"?
[statusCode:protected] => 201
Thanks
Since the result is the [Twilio.Notify.V1.NotificationInstance]
object.
The problem is all the properties within the object are protected we cannot access them directly.
We were able to get to them with a bunch of strpos, substr, and regex but found a much easier way using a getter.
By doing this way
print($twilio->getHttpClient()->lastResponse->getStatusCode());
