Twilio
Twilio is a cloud-based communications service where you can send and receive audio, video, and text messages with an API..
Integrations and Connectors
AgilePoint NX integrates in these ways with Twilio:
- Activities in Process Builder
- Access tokens
- SMS Notifications
- SMS Approvals
- Launch apps with SMS (AgileConnector)
Activities in Process Builder
You can use out-of-the-box activities for Twilio to execute actions in process-based apps.
An activity is a functional unit, or task, in a process-based app. Activities that integrate with a third-party system provide access to the API functionality for that system in a simple, point-and-click, form-entry format. This means that you can easily leverage APIs without writing code.
The following activities are available for Twilio:
- Check SMS Delivery Status
- Check WhatsApp Message Delivery Status
- Send SMS
- Send WhatsApp Message
For more information, refer to the process activities for Twilio in Process Builder.
Access Tokens
You can create access tokens for Twilio.
An access token is a secure object that stores an endpoint (usually a URL) and authentication credentials to connect to a service or technology. Often this is an external or third-party service, like Salesforce or SharePoint, but access tokens can also connect to an AgilePoint NX enviornment, local database, or other types of technologies. Once an access token is created, application designers can simply select and reuse it, rather than entering the credentials each time they are needed.
For more information, refer to Access Token for Twilio.
SMS Reminders and Notifications
You can use Twilio as the service provider to send SMS, reminders, and other types of notifications.
For more information, refer to SMS Configuration screen.
SMS Approvals
Message-based approvals let you route a process based on yes/no logic with typed keywords. This provides a simple alternative to submitting a form. You can use message-based approvals with SMS. Twilio can be used as a technology to send SMS messages.
For more information, refer to Create or Change an SMS Template for an Approval.
AgileConnectors
AgileConnector are available for this integration.
For more information, refer to Administration for Out-of-the-Box AgileConnectors.
