How do I add a line break in my SMS message?
To add a new line in the message body of outgoing SMS messages, there are a few options below if sending via the API.
\n Character
- If you're using a JSON request body, you can use "\n" e.g. "body" : "Here is my first line\nhere is my second line",
- If that doesn't work, try "\r\n" e.g. "body" : "Here is my first line\r\nhere is my second line",
<br> HTML Tag
Use "<br>" in the message body e.g. "Here is my first line<br>here is my second line"
%0a New Line Character
Encode a new line as %0a. For example, you could send a message like the following:
"Body=Here+is+my+first+line%0aHere+is+my+second+line"
Line Break Character
Use a new line in your body string e.g.
"Body=Here+is+my+first+line
Here+is+my+second+line"
