# Services resource

> \[!IMPORTANT]
>
> The Services resource is currently available as a Public Beta product. This means that some features for configuring your Messaging Service via the REST API are not yet implemented, and others may be changed before the product is declared Generally Available. Messaging Service Configuration through the [Twilio Console](https://www.twilio.com/console) is Generally Available.
>
> Public Beta products are [not covered by a Twilio SLA](https://help.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002413087-Twilio-Beta-product-support).
>
> The resources for sending Messages with a Messaging Service are Generally Available.

When sending a message with a Messaging Service, you can improve message performance by enabling the [included features](/docs/messaging/services).

Developers can associate [phone numbers](/docs/messaging/api/phonenumber-resource), [short codes](/docs/messaging/api/services-shortcode-resource), and [alpha sender IDs](/docs/messaging/api/alphasender-resource) to an instance of a Messaging Service. The Service handles all inbound and outbound behaviors for the phone numbers and shortcodes.

**Twilio Console**

You can manage your Messaging Services through the [Twilio Console when logged in.](https://www.twilio.com/console/sms/services)

## Messaging Services Resource

The Services resource represents a set of configurable behavior for sending and receiving Messages.

### Subresources

The Services resource also has PhoneNumbers, ShortCodes, and AlphaSenders subresources for managing the phone numbers, short codes, and alpha sender IDs associated with the Service.

* [PhoneNumbers](/docs/messaging/api/phonenumber-resource)
* [ShortCodes](/docs/messaging/api/services-shortcode-resource)
* [AlphaSenders](/docs/messaging/api/alphasender-resource)

### Resource URI

All URLs in this documentation use the following base URL:

```bash
https://messaging.twilio.com/v1
```

## Delete a Service

`DELETE https://messaging.twilio.com/v1/Services/{Sid}`

When a Service is deleted, all phone numbers and short codes in the Service are returned to your Account.

> \[!WARNING]
>
> If you are using a Messaging Service for A2P 10DLC, you should **not** delete the Messaging Service. Doing so deletes the A2P 10DLC Campaign, which immediately halts all US A2P 10DLC messaging. A new Campaign and Messaging Service must be created and re-registered. This process can take several days.

### Path parameters
