✅ Do & ❌ Don’t

✅ Do

❌ Don’t

Narrow by date range first

Search a huge range and expect instant results

Add Phone Number if you know it

Rely on partial numbers unless formatting is consistent

Check your time zone

Assume logs use your device time if account TZ differs

Use Export for reports

Copy large tables manually


🛠️ Troubleshooting

1. I don’t see Logs or Advanced.

  • Ask an admin to grant you Logs access. Refresh after your access changes.

2. No results found.

  • Widen the date range.
  • Remove the Phone Number filter to see all incoming SMS.
  • Check your time zone settings in MyOperator and on your device.

3. SMS expected but missing/delayed.

  • Allow a few minutes for log processing during peak times.
  • Confirm that SMS is enabled for your account and that your number can receive SMS.

4. Sender ID looks masked or formatted oddly.

  • Some carriers mask IDs. Try searching by date/time instead of an exact number.

5. Filters keep sticking between sessions.

  • Use Reset in the Advanced panel, then re-apply.

6. I need a download/export.

  • Use Export from the Logs page if available for your plan, or copy rows to CSV in a spreadsheet.
