Get MMSID Details API

getMMSIDDetails

Synopsis:

This API returns all the details of an MMS template given its MMS ID. Such details include:

  • The internal name of the MMS template
  • The MMS subject
  • The fallback SMS text, which is used when the MMS is sent as an SMS instead
  • The date the MMS template was created
  • The total number of slides within the MMS template
  • The size of the MMS template in bytes
  • The poster URL an MMS template, which represents the content that could be used as the MMS preview poster. It is only returned in the response if the MMS Template contains either a video and/or image in any of its slides. The poster URL is generated based on the first content type (either image or video) to appear in the slides ordered within the MMS Template. Thus it will not be generated if the MMS Template only contains plain text or any other types of objects such as audio, pass, pdf, ical, and vcard.

The API also returns all the details of each slide within the MMS template, including the content and slide text. For example, if a slide contains either an image, audio, or video, then the API will return the URL and file size of the original file plus all the transcoded files.
