10DLC provisioning errors

Emily Champion

Updated

After registering your campaigns with The Campaign Registry (TCR), there's an additional step that Bandwidth takes on your behalf to register your traffic fully within the industry. When there are errors with this last provisioning step, you may see some failures in the telephone number (TN) option orders when you assign a TN to a campaign. The table below outlines the errors and actions you can take. If you were unable to resolve the error using the recommended actions, please open a ticket with the Bandwidth Support Team. 

Note: If you are using the API to submit and check TN option orders, since the TnOptions order is asynchronous, it is recommended to create a tnoptions subscription to receive order status webhooks. Otherwise, you need to poll accounts/{accountId}/tnOptions/{orderId} to get the order status. If you are not using the API for TN option orders, you can check the status of your orders in the Bandwidth App by following the instructions in this article. With either method, please ensure you are paying attention to the status of your orders so you will know if your TN is fully provisioned or if there is an error you need to address.

On May 19, 2025, these error messages will change to be easier to read and interpret. Until this change goes into effect, this page will show the current and new error messages side by side. You will still receive the same error codes, but the verbiage may be different (with the exception of three error codes denoted below in red -- 1003 will be deprecated for 1001, 1013 will be deprecated for 1005, 1016 will be deprecated for 1009). Additionally, errors you may have received from the A2P platform without an error number will now have one-- these are called out below in green. Please reach out to Bandwidth support should you have any questions about this change.
