# List SMS test numbers

`GET /api/v1/sms/test-destinations`

The numbers your workspace may text a template's test to besides the simulator: `pending` until the code texted to it is entered, then `verified`. Adding and verifying one happens in the dashboard (Phone numbers → Testing): it proves the phone is the person's. Requires the `sms:read` capability.
