Hi Mumtaj,

Due to recent carrier regulations, sandbox numbers in free accounts no longer have the capability to send sms.

If you have a paid account, we would recommend you to use that going forward or upgrade to a paid RingCentral account .

should you still face this in an upgraded account, please confirm that you are TCR registered. After this if you still are unable to send sms in sandbox associated with an upgraded account, please feel free to submit a dev support ticket

Developer sandbox tools

Using the RingCentral Phone for Desktop, you can dial or receive test calls, send and receive test SMS or Fax messages in your sandbox environment.

Download RingCentral Phone for Desktop:

Tip: switch to the "sandbox mode" before logging in the app:

  • On MacOS: press "fn + command + f2" keys
  • On Windows: press "Ctrl + F2" keys
