Overridden Alphanumeric Sender ID will be reflected in Messaging Logs and Insights

Several countries and networks require registration for Alphanumeric Sender ID, Phone Numbers, or Short Codes. When you have registered a Sender with Twilio, we automatically override the value provided in the "From" parameter with your registered Sender on any messages sent to that destination.

Historically, "From" number override was not reflected in Messaging Logs or Insights. Starting from June 18th 2024, Twilio will show the overridden Sender instead of the phone number submitted in the "From" parameter of your API request. This provides you with more insight into the Sender that was actually used to send your message.
