Getting started
Prerequisites

Python 2.7, or 3.6 or later is required to use this package.
A deployed Communication Services resource. You can use the Azure Portal or the Azure PowerShell to set it up.
You must have a phone number configured that is associated with an Azure subscription

Install the package
Install the Azure Communication SMS client library for Python with pip:
pip install azure-communication-sms

Key concepts
Azure Communication SMS package is used to do following:

Send a 1:1 SMS Message
Send a 1:N SMS Message

Examples
The following section provides several code snippets covering some of the most common Azure Communication Services tasks, including:

Client Initialization
Send a 1:1 SMS Message
Send a 1:N SMS Message

Client Initialization
To initialize the SMS Client, the connection string can be used to instantiate.
Alternatively, you can also use Active Directory authentication using DefaultAzureCredential.
from azure.communication.sms import SmsClient
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential

connection_str = "endpoint=ENDPOINT;accessKey=KEY"
sms_client = SmsClient.from_connection_string(connection_string)

# To use Azure Active Directory Authentication (DefaultAzureCredential) make sure to have
# AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID and AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET as env variables.
endpoint = "https://<RESOURCE_NAME>.communication.azure.com"
sms_client = SmsClient(endpoint, DefaultAzureCredential())

Send a 1:1 SMS Message
Once the client is initialized, the send method can be invoked:
from azure.communication.sms import SendSmsOptions

sms_responses = sms_client.send(
from_="<from-phone-number>",
to="<to-phone-number-1>",
message="Hello World via SMS",
enable_delivery_report=True, # optional property
tag="custom-tag") # optional property


from_: An SMS enabled phone number associated with your communication service.
to: The phone number or list of phone numbers you wish to send a message to.
message: The message that you want to send.
enable_delivery_report: An optional parameter that you can use to configure delivery reporting. This is useful for scenarios where you want to emit events when SMS messages are delivered.
tag: An optional parameter that you can use to configure custom tagging.

Send a 1:N SMS Message
Once the client is initialized, the send method can be invoked:
from azure.communication.sms import SendSmsOptions

sms_responses = sms_client.send(
from_="<from-phone-number>",
to=["<to-phone-number-1>", "<to-phone-number-2>", "<to-phone-number-3>"],
message="Hello World via SMS",
enable_delivery_report=True, # optional property
tag="custom-tag") # optional property


from_: An SMS enabled phone number associated with your communication service.
to: The phone number or list of phone numbers you wish to send a message to.
message: The message that you want to send.
enable_delivery_report: An optional parameter that you can use to configure delivery reporting. This is useful for scenarios where you want to emit events when SMS messages are delivered.
tag: An optional parameter that you can use to configure custom tagging.

Troubleshooting
SMS operations will throw an exception if the request to the server fails. The SMS client will raise exceptions defined in Azure Core. Exceptions will not be thrown if the error is caused by an individual message, only if something fails with the overall request. Please use the successful flag to validate each individual result to verify if the message was sent.
try:
sms_responses = sms_client.send(
from_="<leased-phone-number>",
to=["<to-phone-number-1>", "<to-phone-number-2>", "<to-phone-number-3>"],
message="Hello World via SMS")

for sms_response in sms_responses:
if (sms_response.successful):
print("Message with message id {} was successful sent to {}"
.format(sms_response.message_id, sms_response.to))
else:
print("Message failed to send to {} with the status code {} and error: {}"
.format(sms_response.to, sms_response.http_status_code, sms_response.error_message))
except Exception as ex:
print('Exception:')
print(ex)
