Twilio

Twilio is a cloud communications platform for building SMS, Voice & Messaging applications on an API built for global scale.

Integrate the Twilio API with the MongoDB API

Setup the Twilio API trigger to run a workflow which integrates with the MongoDB API. Pipedream's integration platform allows you to integrate Twilio and MongoDB remarkably fast. Free for developers.

Overview of Twilio

With the Twilio API, you can build telephone applications that make and receive
phone calls, as well astext messaging applications that send and receive text
messages.

Some examples of applications you could build include:

  • A phone call application that allows you to make and receive phone calls over
    the internet
  • A text messaging application that allows you to send and receive text
    messages over the internet
  • A voicemail application that allows you to leave and receive voicemails over
    the internet

Overview of MongoDB

Assuming you want a few paragraph about the MongoDB API:

MongoDB offers a powerful API that allows developers to interact with their
databases in a variety of ways. The API provides methods for performing
standard CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations, as well as more
specialized methods like bulk write operations and aggregate queries. MongoDB
also offers a rich set of indexing options that allow developers to optimize
their queries for maximum performance. With the MongoDB API, developers can
build a wide variety of applications, from simple data-driven apps to complex
event-driven systems.

How Our Family Uses SMS and Smart Picture Frames to Connect During Remote Holidays
How Our Family Uses SMS and Smart Picture Frames to Connect During Remote Holidays
Two days before Thanksgiving, I decided to put together a simple way for our family to share pictures, because we couldn’t be together in person. The idea: smart photo frames that everyone could text pictures to. Here’s how I got it working. tldr; A Pipedream workflow parses SMS messages sent to a Twilio phone number, extracting the pictures and then using SendGrid to email them to the dedicated email addresses used by our Pix-Star photo frames.
