Twilio authentication

Connect UiPath to Twilio by providing your Account SID, Auth Token, and registered phone number.

To authenticate using Twilio you need to provide the following information:

• The phone number registered in your Twilio account
• Specify whether the instance is created using Test Credentials
• Your Account SID - This is the unique 34 character ID that represents the parent of this account.
• Your Auth Token

Twilio Account SID and Auth Token

Twilio uses these two credentials, the Account SID and the Auth Token, to determine which account an API request is coming from. In that sense, the Account SID acts as a username, while the Auth Token acts as a password.

You can find the Account SID and Auth Token in the General Settings page. In the twilio interface select the Account button and select General Settings. Your account's Auth Token is hidden by default. Select Show to display the token, and Hide to conceal it again.

These steps were originally documented on the Twilio website on December 7, 2021. For updated information and more details regarding Twilio visit the Twilio documentation website.

Twilio Test Credentials

Should you wish to use your Test Credentials, you can find them by accessing Project > Project Settings > API Credentials. They are displayed next to your LIVE Credentials. More information about test credentials is available here.

Add the Twilio connection

1. Select Orchestrator from the product launcher.

2. Select a folder, and then navigate to the Connections tab.

3. Select Add connection.

4. To open the connection creation page, select the connector from the list. You can use the search bar to find the connector.

5. Enter the required credentials, and select Connect.

   Where available, select the menu next to a field and choose Use credential asset or Use Orchestrator asset to reference an Orchestrator asset instead of entering the value directly. For more information, see Use credential assets for connections.
