Twilio Overview#

Twilio's API on Pipedream opens up a multitude of communication capabilities, allowing you to build robust, scalable, and automated workflows. With Twilio, you can send and receive SMS and MMS messages, make voice calls, and perform other communication functions programmatically. Leveraging Pipedream's seamless integration, you can connect these communications features with hundreds of other services to automate notifications, streamline customer interactions, and enhance operational efficiency.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/common-webhook.mjs";
import constants from "../../common/constants.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "twilio-new-call",
  name: "New Call (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event each time a call to the phone number is completed. Configures a webhook in Twilio, tied to a phone number.",
  version: "0.1.5",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getServiceType() {
      return constants.SERVICE_TYPE.VOICE;
    },
    generateMeta(body, headers) {
      return {
        /** if Twilio retries a message, but we've already emitted, dedupe */
        id: headers["i-twilio-idempotency-token"],
        summary: `New call from ${this.getMaskedNumber(body.From)}`,
        ts: Date.now(),
      };
    },
    isRelevant(body) {
      return body.CallStatus == "completed";
    },
    getMaskedNumber(number) {
      const { length: numberLength } = number;
      return number.slice(numberLength - 4).padStart(numberLength, "#");
    },
  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Twilio	`twilio`	`app`	This component uses the Twilio app.
Incoming Phone Number	`incomingPhoneNumber`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.

Trigger Authentication#

Twilio uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Twilio account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Twilio APIs in both code and no-code steps.

To connect your Twilio account to Pipedream,

API Key and API Key SID

First, create an API key in Twilio

There are three types of keys: Main, Standard, and Restricted. You'll need a Main key to interact with certain API endpoints, like /Accounts.
If you don't need to interact with those endpoints, you can use a Standard or Restricted key.

After creating your key, you'll see fields for Sid and Secret. Enter those in the fields below.

Account SID and Auth Token

Visit your Twilio Dashboard. You'll see your Account SID and Auth Token under Account info.

About Twilio#

Confection Overview#

Confection API provides a robust solution for collecting, managing, and utilizing user data in compliance with privacy regulations. It helps businesses capture data lost due to ad blockers and privacy tech, ensuring you don't miss out on valuable insights. With Pipedream, you can harness this data in real-time, triggering actions, analyzing trends, or integrating with other services for a comprehensive data strategy.

      description:
        "If set to true, action execution will be halted when no related UUIDs are found and any subsequent steps that rely on data from this step will not be run.",
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const data = await this.confection.getRelatedUUIDs(
      this.uuid,
      this.likeness,
      $,
    );

    if (data.related.length === 0 && this.stopOnNoResults === true) {
      throw new Error(
        `No related UUIDs with likeness score greater than or equal to ${this.likeness} were found.`,
      );
    }
    return data;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description

UUID	`uuid`	`string`	Provide the UUID to retrieve related UUIDs of.
Likeness Score	`likeness`	`integer`	Accepts values 50 to 100. 100 meaning only pull back records where we are certain the UUIDs are the same record
Should the execution of this step be stopped if no results are found?	`stopOnNoResults`	`boolean`	If set to true, action execution will be halted when no related UUIDs are found and any subsequent steps that rely on data from this step will not be run.
