Get daily inbound SMS statistics
Returns the number of messages your numbers received, one row per calendar day. Rows use the time the carrier received each message, and days with no messages contain a zero count.
Each row contains only a count because a received message has one state. Use the outbound statistics endpoints for lifecycle and delivery-latency data about messages you send.
The maximum window is 365 days; a longer range returns 422. Set timezone to bucket rows by your local calendar day instead of UTC.

Query parameters
Start date (inclusive), YYYY-MM-DD. Interpreted as a calendar day in timezone (a UTC day when timezone is omitted). Defaults to 30 days before to when omitted.
End date (inclusive), YYYY-MM-DD. Interpreted as a calendar day in timezone (a UTC day when timezone is omitted). Defaults to today in that timezone when omitted. Window may not exceed 365 days.
IANA timezone identifier used to group statistics, for example Asia/Kathmandu. The default is UTC. Day and hour boundaries, including the default window when from and to are omitted, follow this timezone. When this parameter is set, pass from and to as calendar days or Z instants instead of timestamps with explicit UTC offsets.
Headers
Workspace context for the request. Required for dashboard authentication and master keys. Workspace keys and access tokens already identify their workspace; send that workspace or omit the header. A different one is rejected.
Organization context for the request. Required for dashboard authentication. An API key or access token carries its own organization, so send either that organization or no header at all; a different one is rejected.
Response
Received-message counts per day for the requested period.
