Body

application/json
​
FilterId
string
required

The Message Filter ID you want to update. Format: MFID- followed by a UUID.

Example:

"MFID-7435d672-a2d0-451e-ab62-45499f5bc7a1"

​
SubscriberId
string

Telegent Subscriber ID. Format: TSUID- followed by a UUID. Create one via POST /v1.0/subscribers/create or look up existing IDs with GET /v1.0/subscribers/get.

​
Phone
string

Phone number this filter applies to. Use E.164 format (e.g., +15555555555). Required even when SubscriberId is provided.

​
FilterMode
enum<string>

Controls how the filter behaves. ACTIVE: rules are enforced — messages that violate the filter are blocked. MONITOR_ONLY: violations are logged and notifications are sent, but messages are still delivered. INACTIVE: filter is paused and has no effect.

Available options:
ACTIVE,
MONITOR_ONLY,
INACTIVE
​
AllowedContacts
string[]

Phone numbers (E.164 format) that bypass content filtering. Messages from these contacts are always delivered without keyword, link, or media checks.

​
BlockedContacts
string[]

Phone numbers (E.164 format) blocked from messaging this subscriber. Messages are silently dropped — the sender receives no error.

​
KeywordFilter
string

Stringified JSON defining keyword rules. Structure: {"CustomKeywords":[...],"SystemKeywords":{"Profanity":[...],"Violence":[...]},"SeverityMap":{"keyword":"HIGH|MEDIUM|LOW"}}. CustomKeywords are user-added words; SystemKeywords are platform-provided categories; SeverityMap assigns a risk level to each term.

​
NotificationPhones
string[]

Phone numbers (E.164 format) that receive an SMS alert when this filter triggers. Typically used for a guardian's phone to be notified about activity on a child's account.

​
ApplyToOutbound
boolean

If true, filtering applies to messages the subscriber sends out.

​
ApplyToInbound
boolean

If true, filtering applies to messages the subscriber receives.

​
BlockUnknownNumbers
boolean

If true, messages from any number not on the allowed contacts list are blocked.

​
BlockLinks
boolean

If true, messages that contain URLs are blocked.

​
BlockMedia
boolean

If true, MMS messages with media attachments (images, video, audio) are blocked.
