How to cancel scheduled messages

Steps to cancel scheduled messages

1. Enter the Message ID

   • If you still see your scheduled messages in the list, the Message ID should already be there.

   • If you cleared your message list, retrieve the Message ID from your Twilio logs and paste it into the Message ID column.

2. Cancel the Scheduled Message

   • Click the Cancel Scheduled Messages button.

   • Twilio Blaster will go through each row, check for a Message ID, and attempt to cancel it.

   • No need to filter for scheduled messages—Twilio Blaster will attempt to cancel every message with an ID.

3. Check the Status

   • If a message cannot be canceled (e.g., it has already been delivered), the Status column will update accordingly.

   • Click Refresh Status to confirm which messages were successfully canceled.
