I'm trying to use the amazon AWS to send a text message to my phone. In particular, I'm using the SNS service and got stuck in the process of creating a new subscription.
In the online tutorial they see this:
How come I see this?
Sorry my screenshot won't work while in the drop-down menu, so I took a ghetto picture with my phone.
Any ideas?
You can use Amazon SNS to send text messages, or SMS messages, to SMS-enabled devices. You can send a message directly to a phone number, or you can send a message to multiple phone numbers at once by subscribing those phone numbers to a topic and sending your message to the topic.
In the Settings area of your seller account, select Notification Preferences. In the Mobile Messaging (SMS) box, click Add Mobile Phone Number. Enter your mobile messaging number in the spaces provided. Select the time for us to send your notification via SMS text messages.
never mind... apparently SMS only works on us-east region, you need to change the region from the sns management page. All seem normal now.
For other people that have this problem http://aws.amazon.com/sns/faqs/ -> SMS Related Questions section. It was very helpful for me.
"Q: Does Amazon SNS currently support notification delivery to international phone numbers? Currently Amazon SNS will only accept US phone numbers as valid subscription end-points."
