Message Logs

What Are Message Logs?


Message Logs provide a complete, searchable record of SMS/MMS activity for a given phone number. This feature is especially useful for troubleshooting delivery issues, monitoring communication history, and maintaining compliance records.

Admins and techs with the appropriate permissions can view detailed metadata about each message sent or received through the Qvara platform.


Accessing & Managing Message Logs

2. You’ll be presented with a list of phone numbers associated with your account and permissions. Click on the phone number you want to view logs for.

    6. Error: If applicable, shows delivery error details
    7. Carrier: The carrier that processed the message

    1. Carrier Message ID
    2. Message size and number of parts
    3. Associated 10DLC Campaign ID (if applicable)


5. Additional Tools:
    1. Filter by Undelivered Messages
      1. Click the “Undelivered” filter button (upper right) to isolate failed messages and assist with troubleshooting.



    2. Switch Between Numbers
      1. Use the phone number dropdown in the top right to quickly navigate between logs for different numbers without returning to the previous screen.

Tip: Message logs are particularly helpful when tracking user-reported delivery issues. The “Details” view often provides insight into failures that can help you or your support team resolve issues quickly.
