Configuring Twilio SMS Target

This article explains how to configure Twilio SMS Target.

While configuring the SMS target through Twilio, you have to clearly define the properties you pass and the information you collect through APIs. Properties you pass here may differ from that of the other SMS service providers. However, the functionality remains the same as configuring the SMS target using SurveySparrow.

Let’s see how it works. 

Please follow the steps as mentioned below.  

Configuring Twilio SMS Target: 

• Enter the name of the Target. In our case, it’s Twilio. 
• Enter the URL Endpoint:
  (https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{SID}/Messages.json

Note: Replace SID with your Twilio Account SID

• Request Type should be POST
• ContentType should be application/x-www-form-urlencoded
• Add Authorization Header. The auth type is BASIC.Generate your base64 string based on yourAccountSID and AuthToken (AccountSID+AuthToken).

Here’re some of the links that you might find helpful during the process.
