Messaging channels

SMS

Your mate on a text-message number — a plain SMS gets a plain answer.

This connection is on the way

It is not something you can switch on yet. Here is what it will do and how it will be set up, so you know what to expect.

01What it does

A text in, a short answer back

Connect a Twilio number and an incoming text reaches your mate; it answers by text, short and to the point, and a teammate can pick the thread up from the Inbox.

02How to switch it on

  1. Buy or bring a Twilio number with messaging enabled.

  2. Give the platform the account SID, the auth token and the number; the inbound webhook is set for you.

  3. Text the number to see the reply.

  4. Text the number from any phone; a teammate joins from the Inbox when needed, and a STOP reply is honoured by Twilio itself.

03What it needs

A Twilio account SID and auth token, and a messaging-enabled number.

  • TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID
  • TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN
  • TWILIO_FROM_NUMBER
